The words holiday or vacation have related meanings in different English-speaking countries and continents, but will usually refer to one of the following activities or events:
* A general leave of absence from a regular occupation for rest or recreation
* A specific trip or journey for the purposes of recreation / tourism
* Official or unofficial observances of religious/national/cultural/other significance, often accompanied by celebrations or festivities (public/religious holiday)
A holiday or vacation trip/break will often be undertaken during specific holiday observances, or be made for specific festivals or celebrations. Certain religious holidays may be of a more somber nature. Vacation or holidays are often used as a time to spend with friends or family.
Longer breaks from a career or occupation also exist, such as a sabbatical, gap year or career break.
