I already have a dictionary, right above my computer. 8) I don't need no fancy computer program to know how to use it.

Robert T Ackerman:
Alright :)

AV Matt:
alright |?lˈrīt| |ˈˈɔlˈraɪt| |ɔːlˈrʌɪt|
variant spelling of all right .

USAGE
The merging of all and right to form the one-word spelling alright is first recorded toward the end of the 19th century (unlike other similar merged spellings such as altogether and already, which date from much earlier). There is no logical reason for insisting that all right be two words when other single-word forms such as altogether have long been accepted. Nevertheless, although found widely, alright remains nonstandard.

Yay for the Mac Dictionary. :)
