あらゆる (every, all kinds of)

The pre-noun modifier あらゆる ('every / all (kinds of) / all conceivable'), a fossilized attributive form descended from classical Japanese (あり 'be' + auxiliary -ゆ + attributive ending). Cannot conjugate or take の — sits frozen before abstract collectives. Used only prenominally: あらゆる手段 ('every means'), あらゆる可能性 ('every possibility'), あらゆる機会 ('every opportunity'). Stronger and more sweeping than 全ての.
