all, the whole Synonym: guzti

Usage notes

[edit]

In the sense "all", the terms oso and guzti are not always interchangeable. The term oso usually only modifies nouns referring to "dividable" referents. For example, both opil osoa and opil guztia (“the whole cake”) are correct and virtually synonymous; however *zuku osoa (literally “the whole juice”) is not and zuku guztia must be used instead.
