is it "all right" or "alright"?
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category? Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Alright is more of an OKay, alright I'll do it.
as in All right is more like, the students did all right on their tests. ]
It seems that "all right" is more formal, while "alright" is more informal.

"My answers were all right."
"My answers were alright."
The first works A LOT better.
"Will you come with me?" "Alright."
"Will you come with me?" "All right."
The first works A LOT better.
It just depends on the situation.
I guess if you can sub in "correct" for "right", then use "all right". If you can sub in "ok" for "right", then use "alright."
