뜻
Everything is in order or correct.
문화적 배경
Being 'a posto' is essential for 'la bella figura'. It means you are not a source of trouble for your family or community. In the South, 'Tutto a posto?' is often used as a greeting even among strangers, accompanied by a specific chin-flick gesture. When dealing with Italian offices, hearing 'È tutto a posto' is a huge relief, meaning your paperwork is finally correct. Italians use 'a posto così' to signal the end of a meal phase, preventing the waiter from bringing unnecessary items.
The Universal Answer
If you don't know how to answer 'How are you?' in a neutral way, 'Tutto a posto' is always safe and natural.
Don't Pluralize
Never say 'a posti'. It is an adverbial phrase, so it never changes.
