allot 【ALLOT】The profits from the candy sale have been allotted equally to the Boy Scouts and the Girl Scouts.销售糖果的所得已公平地分配给男女童子军。【重点词汇】allot v. 分配 同: allocate

Accepted Answer

[ə'lɑːt] 
allotgive out
When you allot something, you are giving out portions: “Becky was able to allot five snacks per employee, but in the afternoon some workers sneaked back into the break room for more.”
Be careful not to mistake allot for “a lot” (a large number), which has a similar spelling and the same pronunciation. Use the verb allot when you need to describe the act of assigning portions of something — be it snacks, time, or blame. The word is often used in the sense of an official group, such as a government or a corporation, dividing up and distributing small portions of something desirable, such as funding, shares, or land: “Zenitech Corporation was able to allot land rights to four groups in the area.”
