Allow means to let something happen, or let someone have something.
"She allowed her daughter to go on a date that night."
"I'll allow balls in the house if you don't knock over the television again."
"He wouldn't allow her to see him again, all he did was hurt her."

Thank you very much for your answer. My question is "allow for", not only "allow".
Looks like it has two means, but I'm not sure both is popular. If only one of two is popular, I will learn it for now.

Oh, sorry, I didn't notice it.
Allow for means the same thing as allow.
"She allowed for her daughter to go on a date tonight."
"I'll allow for balls to be in the house if you don't knock over the television again."
"He wouldn't allow for her to see him again, all he did was hurt her."
'Allow' is mainly used, though.

They are close in meaning, although I think there is a slight difference in nuance.
"Allow for" is closer to the words "permit" and "plan on" in meaning. Allowing for something can mean that you are making a plan that covers or includes certain possibilities.
For example:
"Brian allowed for rainy weather when packing for his trip."
Meaning: When he was packing for his trip, Brian planned out what he would bring so that rainy weather would not be an issue if it happened.
"We must allow for the possibility that the phone lines are being monitored."
Meaning: As we decide what to do next, we must plan around the possibility of the phone lines being monitored.
I hope this helps you!
