happening every night
Happening every night on a regular plan or schedule.
Patrón de uso:
nightly [noun]
Error frecuente:
Learners often say *"every nightly"* instead of "every night" or "nightly." Use "nightly" directly before a noun ("nightly show," "nightly routine"), or use the phrase "every night" after the verb. Also, some learners confuse "nightly" with "nightlife"; "nightly" means happening every night, not places to go at night.
Sinónimos
nightly (every night) (Core sense; more compact and slightly more formal than saying "every night".)

every night (as an adverb)
Happening every night; used after a verb to say something happens each night.
Patrón de uso:
[someone] [verb] nightly
Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes put "nightly" before the verb (*"nightly we watch"*) in contexts where natural English uses it after the verb ("we watch nightly"), or they use "at nightly" instead of "at night". Use "nightly" as an adverb directly after the verb or at the end of the sentence: "They meet nightly," not *"They meet at nightly."
Sinónimos
every night (More common in everyday speech; slightly less formal and often clearer for learners than "nightly.")
