The German word "jeweils" is an adverb meaning "each time", "respectively", or "at a time". It comes from the word "je", which means "ever" or "each" (in contexts like "each of" or "per"), indicating occurrences or divisions referring to individual elements or instances.

Similar words include:

  • "immer" (always)
  • "je nachdem" (depending on)
  • "entsprechend" (accordingly, respectively)

Difference:

  • "Jeweils" emphasizes individual or separate instances in sequence or distribution (e.g., two books, jeweils ein Exemplar = one copy each).
  • "Immer" indicates continuous repetition ("always").
  • "Je nachdem" expresses condition or variation.
  • "Entsprechend" relates more to conformity or appropriateness rather than occurrence.
