Take care now. I am from AzerbaijanI am a teacher.I have information about there is-there are.We used there is-there are in seasons topic.Winter, spring, summer and autumn are the seasons of the year.December, January and February are the winter months The weather is cold, usually it snows.March, April and May are the spring months.
It is a very nice season. The weather is fine, it is warm.
There are many green trees in the streets in the parks and in the yards. Sometimes it rains but usually the sun shines brightly.June, July and August are the summer months. It is hot or warm.
The days are long and the nights are short. There are many nice flowers in the parks and squares in the summer.September, October and November are autumn months. The weather is changeable.
It often rains. You can see yellow, red, brown leaves everywhere. It is time to gather the harvest.I like your site. I think that the weirdest unique celebration we have here in Sweden would be Midsummer. Originally, the vikings used to sacrifice to the gods on this day so that this years harvest would be good. Since then it has evolved quite a bit. Maybe the biggest change is that we don't sacrifice people anymore, as that would be highly illegal.
We also dress a pole in different flowers and things and then dance around it. It's not only the children that do this though, grown men do it to, but that might have something to do with the fact that it is quite popular to drink during this holiday. As many people have already mentioned Sweden's most unusual celebration (midsummer), I would like to talk about the typical Swedish Christmas celebrations. At first glance, they may seem normal, but if you look deeper you will notice that they are, in fact, rather unique.To begin with, Christmas is not celebrated on Christmas Day but on Christmas Eve.
Therefore, the excuse of Santa delivering the Christmas presents during the night does not work and instead a family member (or, in some cases, a neighbour or friend of the family) always has to sneak out of the house, dress up as Santa, grab a sack with Christmas presents, knock on the door and then hand out the Christmas presents to each and every person. At least that is how it worked at my family's Christmas celebrations back in the time when we still had someone in the family who believed in Santa.Anyway, a couple of hours before the faux Santa knocks on the door, it is also tradition for everyone to gather around the TV and watch a special Christmas-themed (poorly Swedish dubbed) Donald Duck programme. Yes, it is exactly as random as it sounds, but we Swedes are actually really fond of it and it would not feel like Christmas if we did not watch it.Well, there you have it; a very unusual celebration all the way from Sweden! A lot of the traditions we have in Sweden, are celebrated in other parts of the world as well.
Like christmas and easter. But traditions as Valborg and Midsummer, I do not believe are celebrated in other countries. But what do I know? On Valborg, we set a pile of wood and branches on fire and watch them, burn. I am not sure why we are doning this, but it is fun!
Midsummer is even weirder. We dance around a pole and sing songs, and eat a lot of food. Camtasia studio 9 crack fr. Food such as baltic herring is not one of my favourites. But other than that it is a great holiday we spend with friends and family, and eat a lot of amazing and delicous food. A tradition I find very strange is easter. I come from Sweden and yes, there are a lot of other countries celebrating easter.
But I find that tradition very weird. Why would we want a controlling rabbit make us look for candy? Isn't easter about celebrating Jesus Christ's resurrection and remembering his suffering? What do yellow chickens have to do with that?
Another easter tradition is getting branches, putting them in a vase and then hanging colored feathers on them. I mean, how weird is that? We also dress up like witches and visit our neighbors to wish them a happy easter.
What do witches have to do with the resurrection of Jesus Christ? Not that I'm a christian, but it does feel like us Swedes are just making things up to make easter sound fun.
I don't even think easter is about having fun. My mom is a christian and she says we should mourn about Jesus's suffering and his death.
Well, I haven't read a lot about easter. I'm just talking about my own experiences.Another weird tradition from Sweden is midsummer. It's a time where we gather our people to raise something we call the midsummer pole.
There Is There Are Song
It's like a wooden cross, just like the christian cross, and it has one flower wreath on each 'arm'. Before we raise the pole, we drape it in flowers and leafs. And when we've raised it, we dance around it.
To me it sounds like witchcraft. And that's not all there is. Some people even dress in the old traditional clothing with clogs and all. Even if it all sounds weird, I think we do it because of the solidarity. We want to keep together (in a non-racist way!!!) and I guess we want to keep being informed about our country's past.
I think it's a good thing, because we're having fun. With strangers even, and that's a big step for a Swede! Just as alot of other people that have posted comments here, I am Swedish. Really there are two celebrations that are unic for Sweden, or at least for Scandinavia, and those are midsummer and valborg (i don't really know how to translate that one.
He direct translation would be 'Choice-castle' but it has nothing to do with either of those words. In midsummer we celebrate the the day is at its longest and the night at its shortest. We do this by decorating a giant cross with rings underneath the horizontal log. It is decorated with leaves and flowers and the Swedish flag. We the dance around the cross, singing childish songs with different movements to them.
It is also tradition to have different competitions during the day, like sack jumping or carrying a potato around on a spoon. During this celebration we eat herring and egg and potato, and drink A LOT of alcohol.Valborg is a celebration in the fall where people gather around a huge campfire. According to the myth, the fire is to scare all the witches away. The one celebration that personally enjoy the most is Midsummer. It's not only because of the long days and the bright sunlight. No, what I really like is dancing around a big phallic pole with a bunch of my friends and family, whilst singing about small frogs and my grandmother's crow.
It may sound peculiar, but this is a fertility cult at it's very best! During this very enjoyable time we also eat pickled herring with eggs, sour cream and chives. Before hitting the sack, we pick seven different types of flowers and sneak them under our pillows. Thanks to the magic of the night, we then dream of our lover to be. Come visit Sweden, dear folk!
There are no strawberries. There is no strawberry. Can I use both? Does it mean the same?Use There are no strawberries. You can't use both. There is no much age difference.
There Is There Are Ppt
Can I say 'there is no + much/many'?No, you can't have no many or no much. With many and much, you need not. The correct forms are not many, not much. Lawn2llawn2any rule for 'There are no' and 'there is no'?
There are no has to be followed by a plural. There is no has to be followed by a singular. There is no is used with uncountable nouns too, of course, because they are always singular. There are no pencil s in this drawer.
There is no point in hurrying since we are already late. There is no milk in the refrigerator. Generally, if you want to deny the existence of countable objects, use the plural. There are no knives in the drawer. There are no bananas on the shelf. There are no pens on the table.
There are no books here that I like. There are no roses in the garden. There are no children playing on the street. There are no cities more beautiful than this. There are no people at the station.
There are no countries that allow that. There are no blankets for sale there. It is usually the abstract nouns that are used in the singular with no. There is no reason for that behavior. There is no way that we'll have enough time. There is no need to do all those computations. There is no standard method for doing this procedure.
There is no safe place to put this collection of precious stones.
