RECESS   (長い)休み時間

Explanation

  • Recess is a regular break during the school day when children are free to relax and play as they like.

    Be Careful! We do NOT call the short 5- to 10-minute breaks between classes recess.
  • recess とは、生徒がリラックスしたり、好きなように遊んだりできる、学校での決まった休み時間のことです。

    注意:授業と授業の合間の5分から10分くらいの短い休み時間のことは recess とは呼びません。
