If there are say, 5 people in a team, can anyone explain the subtle differences among the meaning of each of the following sentences?
Each of them wouldn't think bad about the other.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about rest of them.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about anyone of them.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about all of them.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about anybody else.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about anybody.
Each of them wouldn't think bad about everybody.
And are these sentences correct too?
Or maybe I will explain it here what I think & anyone of you can let me know if anything is wrong or about what is their answer.
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about the other' means any team member wouldn't think separately bad about any other member in the same team.
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about rest of them' means any team member wouldn't think collectively bad about the other 4 members.
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about anyone of them' means the same as the 1st sentence.
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about all of them' means any team member wouldn't think collectively bad about all of the members (including him/herself).
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about anybody else' means any team member wouldn't think separately bad about anybody other than him/herself. The 'anybody else' here refers to any other person inside or outside the team but just not him/herself.
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about anybody' means any team member wouldn't think separately bad about anybody. The 'anybody' here refers to any person inside or outside the team including him/herself. (so literally anybody in the world). Here I do have a doubt though- does 'anybody' include him/herself?
'Each of them wouldn't think bad about everybody' means any team member wouldn't think collectively bad about everybody. The 'everybody' here refers to all people whether inside or outside the team including him/herself. (so literally everybody in the world)
