Morphology

each + week

The meaning 'every week; on a weekly basis' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'each' (every individual) with 'week' (seven-day period); a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning. This compositional pattern (each + time unit) is cross-linguistically common and follows standard English quantifier + time-noun usage, so it is easily understandable without prior exposure.

Etymology

The phrase each week gives a simple picture: imagine a small calendar you turn every seven days. Doing something each week means you do it every time the week turns, so it means 'every week'.
