is "all in all " formal or informal?
Hi, there!)))
I 'd like to know if "all in all" could be used in a Discursive Essay, in the last part of it. Is the phrase formal or informal?
Thanks in advance:-)

As Heinz says, it's informal. It means "considering everything/all things considered". "We sold some t-shirts, we sold many tickets, we sold beer and food, all in all it was a good day's work".

Yes you can since it is not formal.
