A wrong and alternative way of writing the word a lot.
Often called a fake word since it does not show up in the dictionary.

If you use write 'a lot' 'alot' then you probably didn't pay attention in your 3rd grade English class.

A non-existent word in any language.
The most irritating spelling mistake ever.
A lot. It's two words.

A world that is used primarily on internet site.
It cannot be found in the dictionary and drives many people crazy as it is incorrect.
Allot means to share/ divide space or things- this is where allotment came from, an allotted space of land.
lot- meaning one of a set of objects/ a way of deciding (similar to vote) or the decision or choice made by such a method.
a lot- Very many, a large number; also, very much.
Now, the word 'alot' doesn't appear in any correct dictionary, so it is not a word. It is a popular misspelling- done by those who seem to have missed basic spelling classes in Primary school.
