On the weekend vs on weekends
I could not find precise answer in the past Q&A, so I post this question. Pls help.
When you use "on the weekend", do you mean only one specific weekend?
And when you use "on weekends", I guess you mean weekends in general. (Am I right?)
In any case, do you use "on the weekend" to mean weekends in general?

Anonymous In any case, do you use "on the weekend" to mean weekends in general? It depends on context, but typically "on weekends" is the phrase used to mean "all weekends in general". I would take "on the weekend" to refer only to one weekend.
