The Korean word 방학 (banghak) is used to refer to school vacations or breaks. It’s a noun that’s usually used in educational contexts to talk about times when students are off from school, like summer vacation or winter break.
Here are some examples of when you’d use 방학:
- Summer Vacation – 여름 방학 (yeoreum banghak)
- Winter Vacation – 겨울 방학 (gyeoul banghak)
- Spring Vacation – 봄 방학 (bom banghak), although spring breaks are shorter or less common in some schools.
- Fall Vacation – 가을 방학 (gaeul banghak), also less common.
