What is the difference between "whole over the world" and "all over the world"?
@subhrakanta,
The difference is that "whole over the world" is not good English, whereas "all over the world" is.
@Tes yeux noirs,
Tes, mebbe Aub meant to write, "the whole world" in which case of course it'd be okay
@subhrakanta,
There is no difference between these two but all over the world seems correct than whole over the world.

Good to see that there is something keeping tabs on you, Set.
I think all are the same , they address the same set of people
@subhrakanta,
I can say "all over the world" is the most correct idiom. Not sure about "whole over the world" , never heard or saw this usage.
There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
@subhrakanta,
"all over the world" is more pleasing to the ear..
@Tes yeux noirs,
The difference is one is correct and the other is incorrect.
@Tinamary911,
Well, that settles that—four years later.
@InfraBlue,
Unless it's the hole(s) over the world in the ozone layer.
