| When given a week, day, month or year then we use FOR. EX: for a week, for a year. When given a particular point of time ie 6'o clock, 1947 we use since. EX: since 1947, since 6'o clock. |

| Here we can't use since or for because sentence is formed with present prefect tense and we can use since or for only with prefect continuous tense. | |
| Devil Said said: (Dec 23, 2014) | |
| Since is used in case of "point of time". And for is used in case of "period of time" week in this sentence is representing a period of time so the answer is 'for'. |

| Can we use I hadn't seen fora week? | |
| Niharika said: (Dec 26, 2018) | |
| 'since' is preferred for a period of time which starts in the past & still is continuing. And 'for' is used when something had started in the past but stopped. The answer is FOR since the action had stopped by seeing the person. | |
