Alright
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alright is an alternative spelling of "all right". It is usually used to indicate that something is good but not great (so-so): "The play was alright." It is also used as an expression of great pleasure: "We won the championship! Alright!"
Used as a definite distinction from "all right" as in "everything" (all) "correct" (right). To represent "kind of" or "sort of."
Although "Alright" has been in use for a little over a century, it is considered by most experts to be an illegitimate spelling of the word.[1] This is in contrast to the similar words "already" and "altogether", which have been used as compound words since the Middle Ages.
Even though it often appears in print, the use of "alright" in any context other than slang is generally frowned upon and may be perceived as purposefully breaking convention.[2][3]
