- In this lesson, learn how to use "over" and "during" to sound fluent in English.
Both "over" and "during" can be used interchangeably in a very specific context.
However, the majority of the time "over" and "during" aren't interchangeable and you have to use one or the other depending on the context.
"Over" and "during" are interchangeable when you're talking about: the weekend, holidays, seasons, vacation, and meals.
For example, you can say "we went to the beach over/during the weekend".
In this context, they can be used interchangeably.
However, there is a subtle difference in meaning. "Over" sounds like the entire period and "during" sound like a specific point in time within a longer period. Most native speakers ignore this subtle difference and use them interchangeably.
Outside of this context, you need to choose "over" or "during" specific to the sentence.
By the end of the lesson, you'll feel confident using "over" and "during".

Thank you for this short explanation!
I have a question though: If I say “During our summer holiday we stayed at a cosy hotel near the beach,” would this imply that we didn’t necessarily stay there the whole time? Would I have to replace “during” with the preposition “over” in order to express that we actually stayed there from the first till the last day of our vacation? I would appreciate a lot your reply!
Kind regards,
Anna

Amazing job! 🥳
I've seen a lot of teachers show the difference between "over" and "during", and "for" and "since", but I've never seen someone explain the difference between "over" and "for". But, unfortunately, that's the thing that's been torturing me a lot. Could you please make a video on the difference between "for" and "over" when talking about duration?
I'm struggling with these sentences: (some ideas for examples in your video, it would be great if you showed them all)
The Central Bank plans to reduce the key rate *for six months.*
vs
The Central Bank plans to reduce the key rate *over* (the course of) *six months.*
We're expecting the dollar to rise *for nine days.*
vs
We're expecting the dollar to rise *over* (the course of) *nine days.*
and now in the past:
The Central Bank reduced the key rate *for six months.*
vs
The Central Bank reduced the key rate *over* (the course of) *six months.*
The dollar rose *for nine days.*
vs
The dollar rose *over* (the course of) *nine days.*
Great question! I'll answer that in a future lesson! 😁
Hello, Madam ! After my watching your today's lesson, I'm getting to see the point of giving a lesson in telling the two prepositions apart ; that is to say, the meaning of the two are basically much the same inside the categories you gave in this video lesson, but outside the categories, the two are no longer used as the same meaning as above, and so those very categories made up of the 5 words you mentioned above seem to be a key point for the sake of today's lesson ! Well, your helpful giving lessons, say, just like today's one seem to keep me sticking around or sticking to yours ! :-):-):-):-):-)
Nice! 👏
Thank you for your reply to me, and I'll see you in the next one, bye Madam ! :-D :-D
