Hi, I wonder which is correct, with time or over time? For example: In the long term, everything may change with time, or in the long term, everything may change over time? Both with and over are possible, with no real difference in meaning.

  • Both with and over are possible, with no real difference in meaning.
  • But 'long term' suggests time, so you do not need to add the 'time' phrase at the end.
  • Here are versions that sound OK In the long term, everything may change.
