§Grammar and usage

Usage: all right written as two words is the standard form, while alright is common in informal writing but is still considered incorrect by many people.

Usage में दो शब्दों वाला all right मानक रूप है, जबकि alright अनौपचारिक लेखन में आम है पर बहुत लोग इसे अब भी गलत मानते हैं।

In formal writing and in exams, prefer all right, just as you write a lot (never 'alot').

Grammar के अनुसार औपचारिक लेखन और exams में all right ही लिखिए, ठीक वैसे ही जैसे a lot लिखा जाता है ('alot' कभी नहीं)।
