뜻
Being away from work for leisure.
문화적 배경
The 'Sommerhus' culture is central to being 'på ferie'. Many Danes own or rent wooden cottages by the sea where they spend their holidays without TV or internet. Danes take their 'ferie' very seriously. It is culturally frowned upon to contact someone for work purposes while they are 'på ferie'. Danish children have 'Efterårsferie' (Autumn holiday) in week 42. Almost the entire country's families are 'på ferie' during this specific week. The right to be 'på ferie' is funded by 'Feriepenge' (holiday money), a portion of the salary saved by the employer and paid out when the employee takes leave.
The 'På' Rule
Always use 'på'. If you say 'i ferie', Danes will understand you, but it's the #1 marker of a beginner.
Out of Office
When writing an out-of-office mail, always include the date you return using 'er tilbage den...'
