"Everytime" is not a word, so it can't be a compound word. The term is always written as two words - "every time". In this case every is an adjective modifying time, to form an adverbial phrase.
The word "every" can be very confusing because it can have two radically different meanings depending on whether it's an adjective or a prefix. Some examples:
- Every day: An adverbial phrase meaning seven days a week; e.g. "the store is open every day".
- Everyday: Either an adjective or a noun, it connotes ordinariness or commonality; e.g. "everyday chores".
- Every one: A phrase meaning each or all; e.g. "every one of the students passed the test".
- Everyone: A noun meaning all the people; e.g. "everyone was admitted to the theatre".
- Every body: Most commonly used in a medical or criminal sense; e.g. "every body showed stab wounds"
