    There is no logical reason for insisting that "alright" is incorrect and should always be written as "all right", when other single-word forms such as "altogether" have long been accepted. The fact that "alright" is not recorded until the end of the 19th century, while other similar merged spelling such as "altogether" and "already" date from much earlier, is no reason for denouncing it, but many people still find it unacceptable in formal writing.

        "Altogether" means "completely".
        e.g. The noise had stopped altogether.
        e.g. We need an altogether different plan.
        You also use "altogether" to show that an amount is a total.
        e.g. You will get $340 a week altogether.
        You use "all together" to say that a group of people or things are together or do something together, and that none of them is missing.
        e.g. It had been so long since we were all together - at home, secure, sheltered.
