Japanese school year and fiscal year start in April and end in March. Therefore today is the last day of the year 2008. We call gaku nendo matsu (学年度末) for the last day of the school year and kaikei nendo matsu (会計年度末) for the last day of the fiscal year.
Matsu (末) means the end. Shu matsu (週末) is weekend. Getsu matsu (月末) is the end of the month. Nen matsu (年末) is the end of the year.
How was your year 2008?
