All and Everyone

Level 2Sounds Like sakalō / āṭā'i

সকলো and আটাই mean “all”: আটাইকেইটা আপেল ৰঙা “all the apples are red”.

How It Works

Two words cover “all”.

WordUseExample
সকলোeverything, everyone, allমই সকলো জানো “I know everything”
সকলোৱেeveryone as the doerসকলোৱে চাহ খায় “everyone drinks tea”
আটাইকেইটাall of a group of thingsআটাইকেইটা আপেল ৰঙা “all the apples are red”
আটাইৰে বাবেfor everyoneআটাইৰে বাবে চাহ “tea for everyone”

Before বাবে, আটাই takes -ৰে: আটাইৰে বাবে. সকলো usually does too: সকলোৰে বাবে.

সকলো can also stand before a noun: সকলো মানুহ “all the people”. আটাই is rare on its own. It most often joins কেই- and a counting word, or -বোৰ, as in আটাইবোৰ “all of them”.
