ukoll

• wkoll (post-vocalic form)

Apparently from u +‎ koll (literally “and all”). Probably used at first as a filler at the end of enumerations and then reinterpreted as “too, as well”. Compare the same development in dialectal British English and all.

• IPA^(key): /uˈkɔll/

ukoll

1. also; too; as well
   • 1970, Anton Buttigieg, “It-Tallab”, in Fl-Arena:

     Wara l-bibien,
     fit-tul tat-toroq twal,
     batejt
     il-għeja
     il-qtigħ ta’ qalb,
     batejt fuq kollox il-mistħija;
     iżda ġarrabt ukoll
     il-ferħ u l-għaxqa
     li kull tallab iħoss
     x’ħin jasal wisq għajjien bil-ħorġa f’idu
     bil-ħobż għand ommu mġewħa.
