Represent these two statement in first order logic:

$A)$ Only Alligators eat humans

$B)$ Every Alligator eats humans


Is Every represents $\equiv \exists$

and Only represents $\equiv \forall$ ??

Can we differentiate it with verb ‘eat’ and ‘eats’??

Only means " Only one"

Every means "All"

But, predicate logic not supports it

But in predicate logic it means each one and that represents by there exists$\left ( \exists \right )$ i.e. representation of "some" but not "all'

right??
