“All at once” is an idiomatic expression that has been in use since the 1400s. The phrase is used to describe something that happens suddenly or unexpectedly, often with a great deal of intensity. It can also be used to describe something that happens all together, without any delay or hesitation.
Examples
- “The storm hit all at once, with lightning, thunder, and heavy rain.”

The phrase “all at once” is commonly used in spoken and written English. It is often used to describe a sudden and overwhelming experience, such as a surprise or a shock. It can also be used to describe a situation where someone decides to do everything at the same time, rather than spreading out their efforts over a longer period.
