Jul 7, 2022 at 11:35 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | Don't overthink this one. Preposition use in English is very flexible - over and through[out], for example, are alternatives that you could have included here. Plus you could have a "zero preposition" (nothing at all) in that position within the utterance. Note that at doesn't work at all in your context (it refers to a point in time, not a range), but all the others are at least "credible", and would normally all be understood to mean the same thing. | |
