Prefix

IPA: /ˈɑ.lər/ Audio: Nl-aller-.ogg
Etymology: From Middle Dutch aller-, alder-, the genitive plural of alle (“all”). The prefix thus literally translates to "of all", yielding adjectives such as allerergst (from ergst (“worst”)) which literally translates to "the worst of all". Words formed this way are thus effectively univerbations. Compare English alder-, German aller-, Old Norse allra.
