Alle or alles?
Is there any difference between the use 'alle' and 'alles'?

A dictionary definition does not seem to make any distinction. I want to say;

'I hope ALL goes well'

Ich hoffe, dass alle gut geht
Ich hoffe, dass alles gut geht

Please feel free to correct the entire sentence if there is a better way of saying it.

Thanks, Gem

Answer

As far as I know: "alle" is equivalent to "all" (people) in english, and "alles" to "everything".

Answer

alles (singular) = everything 
alle (plural) = everyone

Alles ist gut.
Alle sind da.

Answer

"Ich hoffe, dass alles gut geht." is the right form.
