معنی
Stating that one is traveling.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Sleurhut' (caravan) culture is huge. Many Dutch people spend their 'vakantie' at campsites across Europe. The 'Bouwvak' is a traditional three-week summer holiday for the construction industry, often leading to very quiet cities. Flemish people also use 'op vakantie', but you might hear 'met vakantie' slightly more often than in the North. Dutch people often plan their holidays very far in advance, sometimes a full year.
The 'Op' Rule
Always use 'op'. If you say 'in', people will understand you, but you'll sound like a beginner.
Singular vs Plural
Unlike English (holidays) or French (vacances), Dutch usually uses the singular 'vakantie'.
