“熬夜”意思是很晚还没睡,没有时间限制,可以熬到任何时候。而“通宵”是指熬夜熬了一整晚。所以可以说某人通宵熬夜了。
Perfect answer!
熬夜is used as a vi. , but this is a 离合词( split word), it can be used also like this : 我熬了三夜才把这篇文章翻译完。
通宵 is used as an adverb. 通宵 equal ' (throughout) the whole night

熬夜的熬字含有难过的意思,熬夜是说到了晚上还不睡觉,醒着度过晚上,但是所表示的时间不确定,就是只要是晚上没有睡觉就是熬夜。通宵的通含有全部/整个的意思,是整个晚上都没睡觉,都在熬夜的意思。熬夜和通宵的区别主要在于时间的不确定和确定,通宵也可以说是整个晚上都在熬夜。

熬夜 is for those people suffering in order to manage to complish some tasks whole night
