All weekend was unfamiliar to me because it is used itself and not with a preposition like "over" the weekend.

The first two are just fixed adverbs and "over the weekend " is an adverbial phrase?

Hi,

I'd hesitate to say that. We commonly say eg all day. all month, all year, all week, all term..


and "over the weekend " is an adverbial phrase? Y
