during/for

[Verona_82]

Hello,

Could anyone please tell me if the second sentence sounds fine:

I'll be on holiday for two weeks.
I'll be on holiday during two weeks.

These prepositions have the same translation in my language, so it's somewhat confusing.

Thank you in advance.

the second sentence is not correct.
use during with adverbs such as the war/ the day/ the 1990´s...
use for when saying how many hours/days/years etc..

Avalon, please use capital letters where appropriate.
