Altogether & all together

Altogether means 'completely' or 'everything considered'.
My new house isn't altogether finished.
Altogether,
she decided, marriage was a bit of a mistake.

Altogether can also be used to give totals.

That's $4.38 altogether.

I'd like three dozen altogether.


All together usually means 'everybody/everything together'.

Come on, everybody sing. All together now...

Put the plates all together in the sink.

They all went to the cinema together
