Despite the spelling and grammatical errors: q.v.

A lot and allot are pronounced the same, but they have unrelated meanings.
  • A lot is used as a pronoun meaning “many” or “a great amount” and an adverb meaning “very much” or “often.”
  • Allot is a verb meaning “assign” or “distribute.”
  • Alot is sometimes mistakenly used instead of a lot. However, it isn’t a real word and should be avoided.
