Good to be ALWAYS ALRIGHT!

August 31, 2013 · by · in Spelling, Writing · 4 Comments

ALRIGHT, I’m ALWAYS repeating myself about this but please don’t forget that:

alright – one “L”. When writing formally, it is better to use the full form, “all right”

always – same rule, one “L”. But no, it’s not short for “all ways”

Other common “AL” words with one “L” are:

although
altogether
almost

Use the language

All these words – always, alright, although, altogether, almost – in one sentence. Can you do it?

      “I’m thankful” or more commonly “Thanks”.

    All right, we almost got there and although it was an exciting adventure, it isn’t always is possible to be altogether happy with our expectations.

      Sandra, that’s a creative combination with the selected words fitting rather well together. The “is” should be removed though.
