Pronunciation: fake-ca-shun

Sentence: Sara woke up feeling so good that she decided to take a couple fakecation days. Since she couldn't call in well, she faked being deathly ill. It was all working smoothly until she ran into her boss, who also felt too well to go to work, at the beach. "The doctor said I had to sit in the sun to cure my vitamin D deficiency," she lied. "Yeah, me too," said her boss. That was the end of the conversation and neither one of them ever mentioned it again.

Etymology: fake: false appearance; fraud + vacation: period of time devoted to pleasure, rest and relaxation
