Definition (Spanish):—

Comments:According to the DPEJ, 'receso' refers to temporarily closing an administration or university or some larger organization. 'suspenso' is generally longer-term, an equivalent to English 'deferral' or 'abeyance'. 'recreo' is, of course, the term used for recess in an elementary or even secondary school context. 'descanso' is suggested in the absence of further source evidence, as well as elliptical constructions using 'levantar la sesión'.
