丸ごと

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: In 丸ごと (まるごと), whole 丸 plus inclusive ごと forms the adverbial expression entirely.
• Basic usage: 丸ごと means handling an object as a whole without dividing it or leaving part out.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• The whole item without division
  • The nearby noun or predicate identifies what is wholly included; it need not mean every item in a larger set.
