everyone
A form of address or greeting directed at all people present. It is often used to address a group as a whole.
Guten Morgen allerseits und herzlich willkommen zur heutigen Besprechung!
Good morning, everyone, and a warm welcome to today's meeting!
The word is made up of 'aller' (genitive plural of 'alle' (all)) and the ending '-seits' (side). So it literally means 'from the side of all' or 'to the side of all.'
Ich wünsche euch allerseits einen schönen Feierabend.
I wish you all a nice evening after work.
You can recognize the meaning from the sentence position: If 'allerseits' appears at the beginning as a form of address ('Hallo allerseits!' (Hello everyone!)), it is directed at a group. If it appears inside the sentence, it usually means 'von allen Seiten' (from all sides), as in 'Der Plan fand allerseits Zustimmung' (The plan met with approval from all sides).
Guten Tag allerseits, lasst uns beginnen.
Good afternoon, everyone, let's begin.
As a form of address, 'allerseits' is a friendly and common way to address a group of people at the same time. It often stands alone or together with a greeting such as 'Hallo' (hello) or 'Guten Morgen' (good morning).
Hallo allerseits, schön, dass ihr da seid!
Hello everyone, it's great that you're here!
In the meaning 'von allen Seiten' (from all sides), 'allerseits' is mainly used in written language or in formal contexts. In everyday spoken language, this usage is rather rare.
Die Entscheidung stieß allerseits auf Unverständnis.
The decision met with incomprehension from all sides.
together
'zusammen' and 'allerseits' can both refer to a group. 'zusammen' describes several people doing something together or being addressed together, for example in 'Hallo zusammen' (Hello, everyone). 'allerseits' directly addresses everyone present and often appears in greetings like 'Guten Morgen allerseits' (Good morning, everyone). It sounds somewhat more formal or older than 'zusammen'. The words can be confused because both occur in greetings to groups. But for doing something together, you use 'zusammen', not 'allerseits'. For a greeting to everyone, 'allerseits' fits.
Guten Morgen allerseits, schön, dass Sie pünktlich zum Termin da sind.
Good morning, everyone; it's nice that you are here on time for the appointment.
