ale

meaning

all, every, everything, entirety, universe; (number) one hundred

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" היא חלופה ל"ale" שנטבעה בסקר ב2002 כדי להימנע מבלבול עם "ala". אבל, השימוש ב"ale" לעומת "ali" נשאר משמעותית יותר נפוץ.

רוב הדוברים מדווחים שאינם מבינים את המשמעות "נפוץ, שופע", לפחות מחוץ להקשר.

"20, 120" היו משמעויות שאינן בpu, שהיו בשימוש בקהילה לצד 100; הן כמעט ולא קיימות היום.
