British (BrE) and American (AmE) usage (prepositions)

There are some differences between British and American usage in this area.  Here’s the summary:

at vs. on the weekend
AmE speakers prefer on the weekend, BrE speakers prefer at the weekend
from … to / until vs. through
to express the beginning and end of a period of time, AmE speakers prefer through as in, e.g.:
    The shop is open Monday through Saturday
but BrE speakers prefer either from … to or from …until / till as in:
    The shop is open from Monday to Saturday
The shop is open from Monday until Saturday
in vs. for ages
After a negative, AmE speakers prefer in + the time period:
    I haven’t seen the movie in years
BrE speakers prefer for + the time period:
    I haven’t see the film for years
in vs. on the street
AmE users prefer on:
    They live on Washington Street
BrE users prefer in:
    They live in Nelson Street
out and out of
Both varieties use out informally as a preposition rather than out of but AmE also more frequently uses out adverbially as a synonym for outside:
AmE will usually prefer:
    He threw it out the window
It’s raining out

BrE will usually prefer:
    He threw it out of the window
It’s raining outside
