A Lot, Alot, Allot - Pick 2

Today's post is to confirm that you can know a lot about something, but never alot. The word "alot" does not exist! The noun "lot "basically means a large amount ,so having "a lot" of something is the opposite of having "a little".

"Allot" on the other hand is a verb, which means to distribute or allocate.

So, if you are going out tonight to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, please allot yourself plenty of time to drink a lot of green beer, and then... take a cab!
