everything
| Morphological Notes | Quantifier/adjective; neuter nominative singular (also used substantively as a collective totality). |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
all
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'All' is the appropriate rendering here for the neuter nominative singular, referring collectively to the fullness. P1 'everything' is overly pluralizing and abstract, while SILEX supports 'all' as correct here. |
