Do you write a lot, allot, or even alot? đŹ Only two of those are real words â and one is a mistake youâll want to avoid!
A lot (two words) means âa large amountâ or âmany.â Itâs informal but very common in spoken and written English.
Use a lot when you want to say thereâs a large quantity of something.
Allot (one word, verb) means to give or assign something â usually time, money, or resources â for a purpose.
Use allot when youâre talking about dividing or assigning things.
Alot is not a real word. â Itâs a common misspelling of a lot. Always write it as two words.
A lot = many
Allot = to assign
Alot = â not a word
