olla menossa kesälomalle

to be going on summer vacation

意味

To start a holiday period.

🌍

文化的背景

The 'July shutdown' is real. Many small businesses and even some doctor's offices close for the entire month as everyone is 'menossa kesälomalle'. Similar to Sweden's 'industrisemester', the Finnish summer holiday is often taken all at once, rather than spread out through the year. It is considered rude to assign a major project to someone who has just announced they are 'menossa kesälomalle'. When someone says they are 'menossa kesälomalle', the standard response is 'Hyvää lomaa!' (Have a good holiday!).
