alls

This is the 977th most frequent Icelandic word.


alls

The Icelandic word "alls" means "of all" or "at all," depending on context.


Here, 'alls' is used as part of the expression 'alls konar,' meaning 'all kinds of,' to indicate variety.

Ég sé alls konar fugla í garðinum.

I see all kinds of birds in the garden.


In this sentence, 'alls' is used as an emphatic form together with 'hjálpar,' meaning 'help,' to denote the complete absence (here, of assistance).

Hann bjó til þetta án alls hjálpar.

He made this without any help.


'Alls' in this sentence acts as an intensifier in the expression 'alls ekki,' providing emphasis to the negation.

Þú þarft alls ekki að hafa áhyggjur.

You absolutely do not need to worry.
