Small question about Space-time/Space-time continuum

[LiewtiStar]

I'll be straightforward:

Is a space-time considered the same as a space-time continuum?
If a verse use the wording "space-time", are we considering the entirety of the events of the timeline aka past/present/futur if yes, is it the same as using the wording "space-time continuum"?

Is a space-time considered the same as a space-time continuum?

Depending on context, it could be local. For instance, black holes also distort space-time.
