ale is everything. this can be either everything ever or a smaller subset of everything. If you modify ale with another word, it is limited to objects that have that word's quality, such as "ale loje" for "all things red," "ale lipu" for "all things related to books," or "ale pali" for "all things related to working." this is often similar to the reverse, but not exactly the same. for example, "loje ale" is all reds, not all things red, "lipu ale" is all books, and would not talk about a printing press or reading glasses, and "pali ale" would be something like all jobs or activities, and wouldn't talk about a hammer or a cheesecloth.

commentary
"ali" es una alternativa a "ale", creado en una encuesta en 2002 para evitar confusión con "ala". Pero el uso de "ale" todavía queda más común que el uso de "ali".
La mayoría de les hablantes dicen que no entienden el "abundante" significado, al menos, fuera de contexto.
"20, 120" fueran significados no-pu en uso junto con "100" anteriormente; hoy en día son prácticamente desconocidos.
