About three-month long vacation?
Hi. Please help. I want to say that it is not clear as to how long the vacation is but is about 3 monthes long. And it is in that month. I could I write it?
Is this correct? What I am concerned about for this sentence is that I think the word "about" is related to the period, "three-month," (with the word "long" being part of it) and not necessarily to the word "vacation." But, to me, it doesn't look to link the four words that seem to be related as a unit (whole) with dashes, like "about-three-month-long" and put it before the word "vacation," making it "an about-three-month-long vacation." Help.
We have an about three-month long vacation in this month.
