I understand how counting works but How would you say in Japanese:
Have you seen every movie in the series?
Have you seen every James Bond Movie?
Have you been to every bar in town?
Basically how do you represent All or Every when its something in a series?

when to use を vs When to use が
をが
When forming a sentence what are the rules for when to use が and when to use を. Seems like they can be used interchangably.
for instance, I if I wanted to say I am going to my car.
わたしはくるまがいきます。
わたしはくるまをいきます。
will both work or is there some rule I am not seeing?

Furthermore how do you ask someone if they want a drink?
