Answer:

"Summer vacation" is the grammatically correct one since it possesses the correct agreement.        

Explanation:

  • Most nouns have a singular and plural form.
  • Words like one, many, or these can affect whether we prefer the singular or plural form.
  • For example, it’s correct to say one person (one person is the singular form).
  • But when we’re talking about more than one person, we’ll need to say many people (people- plural form).
  • In the given question, the noun 'summer vacation' is uncountable so it will always take the singular form 'vacation' instead of 'vacations'.
  • Since the Uncountable nouns cannot be counted, they possess a singular form and do not have a plural form.
  • Uncountable nouns are for the things that we cannot count using numbers.
  • They may be the names for abstract ideas or qualities or for physical objects that are too small or too amorphous to be counted such as liquids, powders, gases, etc.
  • Thus Uncountable nouns are used with a singular verb.
  • For example:
  • Incorrect: I spent my summer vacations (agreement issues) at my grandmother's home.
  • Correct: I spent my summer vacation at my grandmother's home.

Hence, the singular uncountable noun 'summer vacation' is correct grammatically.
