It also pops up in many expressions and compound words. Of course \u201c<strong>sportlov<\/strong>\u201d is one of such compounds.<\/p>\n<p>Why is a winter school break called literally \u201ca sports holiday\u201d that I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m a very non-sporty person. But I\u2019m sure it has something to do with going outside and playing in the snow. One of the synonyms for \u201c<strong>sportlov<\/strong>\u201d is simply \u201c<strong>skidlov<\/strong>\u201d \u2013 skiing holiday.<\/p>\n<p>And sure it is. Last night I was at <strong>Cityterminalen<\/strong> in <strong>Stockholm<\/strong> waiting for my bus, and while I sat there doing nothing I watched groups upon groups of school age kids with all sorts of skis and snowboards piling into buses to such exciting destinations as <strong>Hemavan<\/strong> and <strong>\u00c5re<\/strong> (popular skiing areas).<\/p>\n<p>Kids in <strong>Stockholm<\/strong> get their <strong>sporlov<\/strong> during week 9. In fact, the whole<strong> sportlov<\/strong> schedule is staggered, so the break comes at different weeks in different regions of the country. Below is the usual outline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>F\u00f6ljande delar av Sverige har sportlov f\u00f6ljande veckor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>* Vecka 7: G\u00f6teborg, Kungsbacka, J\u00f6nk\u00f6pings l\u00e4n, Ydre<br \/>\n* Vecka 8: Uppsala l\u00e4n, Sk\u00e5ne l\u00e4n, S\u00f6dermanlands l\u00e4n (utom Gnesta), \u00d6sterg\u00f6tlands l\u00e4n (utom Ydre), \u00d6rebro l\u00e4n, Hallands l\u00e4n, Blekinge l\u00e4n, Kalmar l\u00e4n, Kronobergs l\u00e4n<br \/>\n* Vecka 9: Stockholms l\u00e4n, Dalarnas l\u00e4n, G\u00e4strikland, s\u00f6dra H\u00e4lsingland, V\u00e4stmanlands l\u00e4n, V\u00e4rmlands l\u00e4n, Gnesta, \u00c4lvkarleby, Gotland<br \/>\n* Vecka 10: V\u00e4sterbotten, Norrbotten, norra H\u00e4lsingland, V\u00e4sternorrlands l\u00e4n, J\u00e4mtlands l\u00e4n, Idre<br \/>\n* Vecka 11: Jokkmokk<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nSo, what will your kids do during <strong>sportlov<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>PS.
