The verb "to summer" refers to spending the summer season in a specific location, often associated with affluent individuals, particularly in the northeastern United States. It is less common in other regions and implies a lifestyle of extended stays in vacation homes. In Chinese, similar expressions include "度夏" (to pass the summer), "避暑" (to escape the heat), and "过暑假" (to spend summer vacation), though they do not carry the same connotations of wealth as the English term.
