holiday vacation festival holiday 假日 vacation 假期 festival 节日 a、对于英国人或者澳大利亚人来说，“假日”的意思等同于“假期”（尽管他们很少用“假期”） b、如果你是美国人，“假日”是指一个特殊的日子，比如圣诞节，而“假期”是指你会花两到三周的时间和你的家人出去旅行。 其他说明： holiday n. 一般表示时间可长可短的假期，为可数名词。与季节连用时多用复数；与数词连用时只表示次数，不表示日期。如： We have had three holidays since the beginning of the year. 但三天的假期应说：a holiday of three days或a three days’ holiday。 vacation n. 一般表示比较长的假期，多指大学的假期、法庭的休庭期。至于寒、暑假，英国人喜欢用：summer / winter holidays，美国人喜欢用：summer / winter vacation，区别不大。如： We spent our summer holidays / vacation in the countryside this year. My Dad is now on holiday / vacation in Beijing.（表示状态） Every year we go to the island for holiday / vacation.（表示目的） holiday / vacation用单数，前面也不加冠词，但可用on / for one’s holidays。 vacation v. 休假； n.（地方的）腾出、（职位的）辞去 Let’s vacation in Hawaii next month.
