altogether
completely. etc., prorsus (opposed to “in some degree,” or “almost;” quite, without exception): omnino (opposed to magna ex parte, etc.: completely, quite; also “altogether” = in one lot [e.g., vendere], opposed to separatim, Plin.): plane (quite: opposed to paene: e.g. plane par: vix-vel plane nullo modo, Cic.): in or per omnes partes: per omnia (in every respect): penitus (through and through; thoroughly; quite; e.g., amittere, perspicere, cognosse, etc., opposed to magna ex parte, and to “superficially”): funditus (from the foundations; utterly: especially with verbs of perishing, destroying, overthrowing, defeating, rejecting, depriving). Altogether or in great measure, omnino aut magna ex parte. With reference to a person, altogether may be translated by the adjective totus.”He is altogether made up of falsehood and deceit,” totus ex fraude et mendacio factus est.
= all together; cuncti (all collected together: opposed to dispersi): universi (all taken together, wherever they may chance to be: opposed to singuli).
In all, omnino (e.g., omnino ad ducentos, Cic..): sometimes in summa (Drusus erat - absolutus; in summa quatuor sententiis, Cic.).
