Arabic vocabulary
كُلُّهُ is how you say “all of it” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَوَصَفَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ النُّسَّاكِ عِنْدَ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ابْنِ عَائِشَةِ فَقَالُوا هُوَ جِدٌّ كُلُّهُ،
They described a man among the ascetics to Ubayd Allah ibn Aisha, and they said, "He is all seriousness."
كُلُّهُ — all of it. A 'whole / all of it' word ending in -hu 'it', so it fuses the quantifier with what it sums up. The -hu points back to the man, intensifying the predicate into 'all of him is seriousness', a totalizing flourish on the description.
