First day of vacation: 'No learning!' A friend: 'There's vacation homework.' 'Why, if it's vacation?'
學 — to learn. 學校 the learning house, 學生 one who lives learning.
放學 — 放 is to let go: setting learning down for a while, not for good. 開學 — opening it again. That's why there's vacation homework.
登校 climb to school, 下校 come down from school. 'Is school a mountain?' 'Mornings, it sure is.'
'Then I'll do one book log — I'm only setting it down for a while.'
방학은 배움을 잠깐 놓는 것, 개학은 다시 여는 것이었어요.
