Hello everyone,
I've seen "all right" being used as a complement on some sentences as a way to reaffirm some information that was said right before it.
For instance, "You are so petty" "I'm petty, all right." - Although I'm not sure if this is worded properly but the idea is to use the "all right" to reaffirm the previous "I'm petty", as if the one saying wanted to make sure that the other person knows that he's petty and that he's well aware of it.
What I ideally want is to know if the use of "all right" as a form of reaffirmation is actually right, and how to use it properly.
