I am very VERY aware of this word, though I call it chag (the A sounds like the A in among. and the CH is the guttural like Bach). Plain and simple: this is a calendar date. Chag Matzah is the festival of Unleavened Bread. Chag Pesach is... the festival of Passover... etc. etc.
Are you aware of any Hebrew uses of this word in a figurative or idiomatic way such that it does not speak of a particular point in time?
Peace be with you.
