talking about the weekend and days off
It's the weekend tomorrow – Saturday and Sunday. Note: Some Russian/Ukrainian speaking students often refer to this as a holiday. It shouldn't be referred to as a holiday, just the weekend. And remember, it always includes Saturday and Sunday and it always refers to both days. When we are away from work we can use the word holiday. This usually means we have at least a week or two away from work and doing our jobs. If we do have one day free or two, we simply call this a day(s) off. When there is a national holiday, like Good Friday, Easter or Independence Day - a day when businesses usually close and people don't have to work - we call these days bank holidays in English. In the UK they usually always happen on a Monday. In England we have 8 bank holidays a year. How many are there in your country?
