What does ALL mean in Scrabble?

adjective

The whole quantity or extent of something.

All works as adjective, pronoun, adverb and noun without changing shape, which very few English words manage. It also survives inside fixed phrases that keep an older grammar — all but one, once and for all.

How ALL is used

Before the noun, or standing alone as a pronoun.

All of them arrived and none of them stayed.
The word all works as four parts of speech unchanged.
All but one agreed, and he left early.
Once and for all keeps an older grammar.
That is all, and there was never any more.
