its spring break not summer vacation right, it should be break

 

[Sha-J Lee]

But for summer you get 2 months off from school so I think that’s why they’d say summer vacation

"I'm on a break from work today" I think I've decided, this works for me

 

[Sha-J Lee]

I used vacation or break interchangeably for summer off from school

 

[Jacyfer]

But when we don't work on a specific day like July 14th or November 11th, we say "jour férié"

 

[Comrade Khan]

a lot of kids went on vacation in summer break, prob how that came about

spring break always consistent but here it's winter break/vacation or summer break/vacation interchangeably

 

[Comrade Khan]

thats the one

 

[Sha-J Lee]

That’s because spring break sounds cooler

 

[Comrade Khan]

jour ferie is like any day thats mandated off work or school thats right - i think in english they call them like statutaory holidays in canada

 

[Sha-J Lee]

I’m getting ready for spring break

Yep we have a bunch of those every year

 

[Jacyfer]

Either religious or commemorative dates

 

[Comrade Khan]
