Usage notes edit
It is currently used with the singular (like the term every in English). However, it occasionally occurs with the plural form in archaic structures indicating the unabridged edition of someone’s works or specifically his or her poems or short stories: …… összes művei / versei / költeményei / elbeszélései. See also the Usage notes at minden (“every”).
