一年有多少个标准假日?完整分类

嗨,节日爱好者们!节日小助手又回来啦,带来另一份实用指南。今天我们来解答一个我经常遇到的问题: “How many standard holidays are there in a year?” Well, grab your calendar and let’s dive in!
简短的回答
In the United States, there are 11个联邦假日 recognized by the government. But before you start planning your year-long vacation, remember that “standard” holidays can vary depending on whether you’re talking about federal, state, or workplace policies. Some folks might count 7-10 “major” holidays, while others include observances like Election Day or Columbus Day.
The Full Federal Holiday List
Here’s the official lineup of U.S. federal holidays (which means most government offices and banks close):
– 元旦(1月1日)
– 马丁·路德·金纪念日(一月的第三个星期一)
– 总统日(二月的第三个星期一)
– 阵亡将士纪念日(五月的最后一个星期一)
– 六月节(6月19日)
- 独立日(7月4日)
– 劳动节(9月第一个星期一)
– 哥伦布日/原住民日(十月的第二个星期一)
- 退伍军人节(11月11日)
– 感恩节(11月的第四个星期四)
- 圣诞节(12月25日)
Why the Number Feels Different
Ever noticed some friends get days off that you don’t? Here’s why:
1. 私营企业 aren’t required to follow federal holidays (though most give 6-10 paid holidays).
2. States add their own – like Texas celebrating Texas Independence Day.
3. “Observance” days like Valentine’s Day aren’t actual holidays (sorry, romantics!).
Pro Tip: Holiday Hacks
Want to maximize your days off? Watch how holidays fall on weekends! When July 4th lands on a Tuesday, many take Monday off for a 4-day weekend (what we call a “holiday sandwich”).
So while the official count is 11 federal holidays, your personal number might be different based on your state or job. The key takeaway? Always check your specific workplace calendar – and maybe send this article to your HR department if you feel shortchanged!
