1.all as an adjective means "all", "all", "whole" and "all" and can be used as an attribute or predicate in a sentence. For example:

2.all is used as an adverb, meaning "all", "all" and "complete". It is mainly used to modify adjectives, adverbs or prepositional phrases and as adverbials in sentences. For example:

3.all is used as a pronoun, meaning "all", "all", "everyone" and "all", which can refer to both singular nouns and plural nouns. It can be used as subject, object and appositive in sentences. For example:

Two. All and all the differences.
1. Only all of can be used before the personal pronoun accusative, not all. All of those men are friends of mine. All of those men are friends of mine.
2. When there is no determiner before a noun (such as definite article the, adjective subject pronoun, demonstrative pronoun, possessive case of a noun, etc.). ), you can only use all, not all. All the children like watching TV. All the children like watching TV.
When a noun is modified by a determiner, you can use both all and all. All the children like watching TV. All these children like watching TV.
