Cuti

From Wikipedia

Perkataan cuti datangnya daripada perkataan holiday yang mempunyai hubungan tetapi maknanya berbeza bagi negara-negara berbahasa Inggeris. Berdasarkan perkataan holy dan day, cuti pada mulanya bermaksud hari-hari keagamaan yang istimewa. Perkataan itu sekarang sudah berubah dalam penggunaan perkataannya untuk memaksudkan ianya adalah apa-apa hari yang istimewa.




In most of the English-speaking world a holiday is also a period spent away from home or business in travel or recreation (e.g. "I'm going on holiday to Malta next week"), the North American equivalent being "vacation". However, some Canadians (especially those of English or Irish descent) will use both the terms vacation and holiday interchangeably when referring to a trip away from home or time off work.

In Canada and the United States, a Holiday is a day set aside by a nation or culture (in some cases, multiple nations and cultures) typically for celebration but sometimes for some other kind of special culture-wide (or national) observation or activity. A holiday can also be a special day on which school and/or offices are closed, such as Labor Day.

A public holiday or legal holiday is a holiday endorsed by the state. Public holidays can be either religious, in which case they reflect the dominant religion in a country, or secular, in which case they are usually political or historical in character. "Public Holiday" is the term used in Australia and "Bank Holiday" in the UK — although some industries in the UK work through Bank Holidays — while "Legal holiday" is the predominant term used within the United States of America though "Bank Holiday" is recognized by many persons as referring to the same phenomena.

There was much protest in France, when the French government ditched a public holiday in May because of deaths caused by a Heat wave on that day two years before. Many people defiantly stayed at home.Templat:Fact

Consecutive holidays are a string of holidays taken together without working days in between. They tend to be considered a good chance to take short trips. In late 1990s, the Japanese government passed a law that increased the likelihood of consecutive holidays by moving holidays from fixed days to a relative position in a month, such as the second Monday. Well-known consecutive holidays include:

  • Began at 2000, in the People's Republic of China, Spring Festival, Labor Day and National Day are week-long holidays.
  • In Japan, golden-week, lasting roughly a full week.
  • In Poland during holidays on the 1st and 3rd May, when taking a few days of leave can result in 9-day-long holidays; this is called The Picnic (or Majówka).
  • In Ireland, St. Patrick's Day can occasionally occur in Holy Week, the week before Easter; in this case the three holidays (St. Patrick's Day, Good Friday, and Easter Monday) plus three days leave can result in a 10-day break.
  • In Australia and England, a public holiday otherwise falling on a Sunday will result in observance of the public holiday on the next available weekday (generally Monday). This arrangement results in a long weekend
  • The U.S. Congress changed the observance of Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Washington's Birthday from fixed dates to certain Mondays in 1968 (effective 1971). Several states had passed similar laws earlier.

In many Western countries, the winter holiday season is known as a period of time surrounding Christmas that was formed in order to embrace all cultural and religious celebration rather than only Christian celebrations. Usually, this period begins near the end of November and ends with New Year's Day on January 1. The holiday season is usually commercially referred to with a broad interpretation, avoiding the reference of specific holidays like Hanukkah or Christmas. Traditional "holiday season" festivities are usually associated with winter, including snowflakes and wintry songs. It is noted by some, however, that winter-associated themes are simply a ripoff from Christmas tradition. In some Christian countries, the end of the festive season is considered to be after the feast of Epiphany, although this has only symbolic value.
