문화적 배경
The 'Pont' (Bridge) culture means that if a holiday is on a Thursday, everyone says 'Bon week-end' on Wednesday evening because they will take Friday off.

In Belgium, 'Bon week-end' is standard, but you might also hear 'Bonne fin de semaine' used more frequently in professional contexts than in France. Swiss French speakers use 'Bon week-end' but are also very fond of 'Bonne suite' (Good continuation) if the weekend is part of a longer break.
