all morning vs whole morning

Both 'all morning' and 'whole morning' are correct phrases, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'All morning' is more commonly used to refer to the entire duration of the morning, while 'whole morning' is used to emphasize the entirety of the morning period. The choice between them depends on the emphasis you want to convey.
