WHAT part of speech is the word all together?

The word "all together" can be considered two different parts of speech depending on its function in a sentence:

* Adverb: When "all together" modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb, it acts as an adverb. This means it describes how something is done or to what extent.

* Example: "The children gathered all together in the living room." (modifies the verb "gathered")

* Adjective: When "all together" describes a noun or pronoun, it functions as an adjective. It usually indicates a group or collection that is complete or united.

* Example: "The all together group of friends enjoyed their vacation." (describes the noun "group")

It's important to consider the context of the sentence to determine the specific part of speech.
