Does "throughout the world" mean the same as "all over" "around" the world?
I'm wondering the meanings of "throughout".
Does "throughout the world" mean the same as "all over" "around" the world? Are they all the same or are there differences between them?

Hi Miku
Yes you're quite right they can mean the same in that context. A language can be used throughout, all over and around the world.
However, something like a satellite out in space will travel around the world and not throughout or all over.
The atmosphere covers the world all over
Hope that helps :)

They are synonymous.
