Can we use "the court breaks to recess"? I googled "break to recess", and there's no examples . I hear it from CNN. Here is the link and it's the last sentence from the video." But again no word of what his respond to the testimony was today,because the court hasn't release anything other than the bare bones, when it opens , and when it beaks into recess." Did I hear it wrong ? Why I can't find this usage in google?Sorry , the link is here http://edition.cnn.com/2013/08/25/world/asia/china-bo-xilai-trial/index.html?hpt=hp_inthenews

It's more commonly phrased "the court will recess" or "the court will take a recess".

The expression is "break for recess". If you google "break FOR recess" you will find some examples.
