万圣节简介Halloween introduction
在西方国家，每年的10月31日，有个“Halloween”，辞典解释为“The eve of All Saints’ Day”，中文译作：“万圣节之夜”。万圣节是西方国家的传统节日。这一夜是一年中最“闹鬼”的一夜，所以也叫“鬼节”。
In western countries, every year in October 31st, a "Halloween", "The eve of dictionary explanation for All Saints’Day", Chinese Translation: "Halloween night". Halloween is a traditional festival in Western countries. This night is the most "haunted" a year in the night, so it is called "Halloween".
两千多年前，欧洲的天主教会把11月1日定为“天下圣徒之日” (ALL HALLOWS DAY) 。“HALLOW”即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年，居住在爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人 (CELTS)把这节日往前移了一天，即10月31日。他们认为该日是夏天正式结束的日子，也就是新年伊始，严酷的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信，故人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵，借此再生，而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。而活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生，于是人们就在这一天熄掉炉火、烛光，让死魂无法找寻活人，又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。之后，他们又会把火种烛光重新燃起，开始新的一年的生活。传说那时凯尔特人部落还有在10月31日把活人杀死用以祭奠死人的习俗。
Two thousand years ago, Europe's Catholic Church would make November 1st as "All Saints Day" (ALL
HALLOWS DAY). "HALLOW" meaning that the saints. Legend since five hundred BC, living in Ireland, Scotland and other places of the Celtic (CELTS) moved forward this festive day, October 31st. They feel that the day is the formal end of the summer days, also is the beginning of the new year, the harsh winter to start the day. When people believe, the spirits of the enemy on this day back in the house to find him in the living creatures, to regeneration, and it is people can be reborn after the death of the only hope. The living dead who are afraid to come to seize the soul of students, so people will put out the fire on this day, candlelight, let the soul can not find the living dead, also dressed up as demons and ghosts to scare away the dead souls. Later, they will rekindle the fire candle to, the beginning of the new year of life. Tribal Celtic legend was still in October 31st to pay homage to the dead to kill the living customs.
到了公元1世纪，占领了凯尔特部落领地的罗马人也渐渐接受了万圣节习俗，但从此废止了烧活人祭死人的野蛮做法。罗马人庆祝丰收的节日与凯尔特人仪式结合，戴着可怕的面具，打扮成动物或鬼怪，则是为了赶走在他们四周游荡的妖魔。这也就是今天全球大部分人以古灵精怪的打扮，来庆祝万圣节的由来。时间流逝，万圣节的意义逐渐起了变化，变得积极快乐起来，喜庆的意味成了主流。死魂找替身返世的说法也渐渐被摒弃和忘却。到了今天，象征万圣节的形象、图画如巫婆、黑猫等，大都有友善可爱和滑稽的脸。
In the first Century, Celtic tribes occupied the territory of the Roman people have gradually accepted the Halloween customs, but has since abolished the firing of brutal practices of the
living dead festival. Romans celebrate the harvest festival and the Celtic ritual combination, wearing a frightening mask, dressed in animal or monsters, it is to drive away demons wandering around in their. This is what most people in todays global trivial dressed, to celebrate the origin of Halloween. The passage of time, the meaning of Halloween has changed gradually, becoming an active happy, happy has become a mainstream means. Dead soul back to look for a substitute to say the world has gradually been abandoned and forgotten. To this day, the symbol of Halloween images, pictures such as witches, black cats, are friendly and cute and funny face.
万圣节的由来
关于万圣节由来的传说有许多版本，最普遍的认为，那是源于基督诞生前的古西欧国家，主要包括爱尔兰、
苏格兰和威尔士。这几处的古西欧人叫德鲁伊特人。德鲁伊特的新年在十一月一日，新年前夜，德鲁伊特人让年轻人集队，戴着各种怪异面具，拎着刻好的萝卜灯（南瓜灯系后期习俗，古西欧最早没有南瓜），他们游走于村落间。这在当时实则为一种秋收的庆典；也有说是“鬼节”，传说当年死去的人，灵魂会在万圣节的前夜造访人世，据说人们应该让造访的鬼魂看到圆满的收成并对鬼魂呈现出丰盛的款待。所有篝火及灯火，一来为了吓走鬼魂，同时也为鬼魂照亮路线，引导其回归。
The origin of Halloween
Legends about the origin of Halloween has many versions, the most common view, that is before the birth of Christ from the ancient Western European countries, including Ireland, Scotland and Welsh. This is some of the ancient western people call LuYiTe de man. Druitt in the November 1st, new year's Eve, young people who set Druid team, wearing all kinds of strange mask, carrying a carved turnip lamp (the jack-o-lantern later the Department of customs, the ancient Western Europe
pumpkin is not the first), they walk in the village. This was actually a kind of harvest celebration; also said to be "Halloween", the legend who died that year, the eve of Halloween spirit will visit the world, said that people should be allowed to visit the ghost to see the ghost of a successful harvest and show great hospitality. All the bonfire and lights, one to frighten away the ghost, but also for the ghost light line, to guide their return.
万圣节在10月31日，其实是赞美秋天的节日，就好像五朔节是赞美春天的节日一样。古代高卢、不列颠和爱尔兰的祭司——德鲁伊德有一个赞美秋天的盛大节日，从10月31日午夜开始，直至次日11月1日持续整整一天。他们认为，在那天晚上他们伟大的死神——萨曼会把那年死去人的鬼魂统统召来，这些恶鬼要受到托生为畜类的惩罚。当然，只要想到这种鬼魅的聚会，就足以令当时那些头脑简单的愚民胆战心谅
的了。于是他们点起冲天的篝火，并严密监视这些恶鬼。
Halloween is on October 31st, in fact, is to praise the fall festival, just like the five Spring Festival is the praise. Of ancient Gaul, Britain and Ireland -- the priests of the druid to have a grand festival praise of autumn, from midnight on October 31st, until the November 1st continued all day. They think, in their great God of death that night -- Selman will put the man was dead were all summoned the ghost, these evil spirits are subject to care for the animal. Of course, as long as the thought of such a gathering of ghosts, it was enough to make simple minded fools who fight heart understanding of the gallbladder. So they lit up the fire, and close surveillance of these evil.
万圣节有哪些习俗？万圣节的习俗——不请吃就捣乱。
What are the customs of Halloween? The custom of Halloween -- don't eat trick.
12月25日，是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子，称为圣诞节。从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间，各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日，由于人们格外重视，它便成为一个全民性的节日，是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日，可以和新年相提并论，类似我国过春节。 过年穿红色，还用得着多讲道理吗？中国人过年，是非红色不可的，我们什么时候过过白色年、蓝色年？红色是唯一的新年颜色。如果你不想绕道而行，自然要对红色产生一些特别的感觉才行。鞭炮、春联、烟火、喜糖，等等。 圣诞节同样如此，圣诞袜、圣诞帽、尤其是和蔼可亲的圣诞老人，一身红装，红色在那里同样象征着吉祥、快乐、新的起点。当然，它还有绿色和白色为主色，就让我们一起在即将到来的圣诞节，提前感受一下气氛吧！ 圣诞节的由来 耶稣诞生的传说 据基督教徒的圣书《圣经》记载，上帝决定让他的独生子耶稣基督投生人间，找个母亲，然后就在人间生活，以便人们能更好地了解上帝、学习热爱上帝和更好地相互热爱。“圣诞节”的意思是“庆祝基督”，庆祝一个年轻的犹太妇女玛丽娅生下耶稣的时刻。《圣经》记载，玛丽娅和木匠约瑟夫订了婚。可是，在他们结婚之前，约瑟夫发现玛丽娅已怀孕。因为约瑟夫是个正派的人，又不想把这件事说出去让她丢脸，所以他想悄悄地和她分手。他正在考虑这事时，上帝的天使出现在他的梦中，对他说，“不要嘀咕了，把玛丽娅娶回家。她怀的孩子来自圣灵。她将生下个男孩子，你们给孩子起名叫耶稣，因为他将从罪恶中拯救人们。”尽管耶稣的确切生日并不清楚，大约是在2000年前，但是日历按着假定日期把时间分为公元前（耶稣基督诞生前）和公元后。在公元后的头三百年间，耶稣的生日是在不同的日子庆祝的。最后，在公元354年，教堂的领导人把12月25日定为耶稣基督的生日 圣诞老公公的由来 据说平安夜的晚上，圣诞节老公公会驾着驯鹿雪橇满载着礼物准备送点这一年来表现很好的小朋友，他会悄悄地从烟囱爬进屋内，礼物塞在挂在床头的袜子里。所以孩子总会把一条条色彩缤纷的袜子挂在床头，并在袜子旁边放杯热牛奶给劳苦功高的圣诞老人解渴，并送份大礼给自己。隔天一每个小朋友都迫不及待地打开礼，想知道自己得到什么奖励。 到了1822年，一位荷兰传教士把这位伟大慈善家的故事传到美国之后，美国商人更以特殊的行销手法，每年利用这个节日大张旗鼓地宣传广告，大赚一笔，在亚洲的日本及其它各国也群起效尤。因此装扮圣诞老人来庆祝圣诞节的风俗习惯也就渐渐地流行到世界各国了。 圣诞装饰 圣诞装饰，大多有它们的意义：灯代表基督是世界之光；绿色的常青树、冬青树和槲寄生作为圣诞树，代表耶稣带给我们的生命；而基督教的象徵——天使和星星，使这些树更突出。而每一种树，也有它们不同的意义：香柏树代表耶稣王的身分；冬青树锋利的尖端和红橘子，代表基督钉死在十字架上。 圣诞袜的由来 从前有一个心地善良的贵族，他的妻子因病去逝，抛下他和他的三个女儿。这个贵族尝试了不少发明，都失败了，也因此耗尽了钱财，所以他们不得不搬到一家农舍里生活，他的女儿们也只得亲自烧煮、缝纫和打扫。一晃几年过去，女儿们陆续到了出嫁的年龄，父亲却变得更加沮丧，因为他没钱给女儿们买嫁妆。一天晚上，女儿们洗完衣服后将长统袜挂在壁炉前烘干。圣人Nicholas知道了她们父亲的境况后，就在那天晚上，来到她们的家门

It means "holy evening," and it comes every October 31, the evening before All Saints' Day. However, it is not really a church holiday, it is a holiday for children mainly. Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside. It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack-o'-lanterns, which means "Jack of the lantern". The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters. Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house. Every time they come to a new house, they say,"Trick or treat! Money or eat!" The grown-ups put treat-money or candy in their bags. Not only children, but most grown-ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day,they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them. This bring them the satisfaction of being young. 万圣节前夕 万圣节前夕是美国人年年都会庆祝的秋季节日。它的意思是“神圣的夜晚”，在每年的 10 月 31 日， 也就是万圣节前夜。 但实际上这不是一个真正的宗教节日， 而主要是孩子们的节日。 每年秋天蔬菜成熟可以食用的时候，孩子们就会挑出大个儿的橙色南瓜。然后在南瓜上 刻上一张脸，把一根点燃的蜡烛放在里面。看起来就好像有人在向南瓜外面张望。这些灯就叫 做“iack-o'-lantems”，意思也就是“杰克的灯”。 每年万圣节前夕孩子们还戴上奇怪的面具，穿上吓人的服装。有些孩子把脸刷成怪物。 然后他们拿着盒子或袋子挨家挨户串门。每来到一个新房子他们就说：“不款待就捣乱!给钱还 是吃的!”大人们就会把用来招待的钱或糖放在他们的袋子里了。 不仅孩子，许多成年人也喜欢万圣节前夕和万圣节前夕晚会。因为这一天 他们可以根据自己的想象把自己装扮成名流或幽灵。这会带给他们年轻的快感。 篇二：万圣节的英文介绍 11 月 1 日万圣节英文：Hallowmas，南瓜是万圣节的代表。 10 月 31 日是万圣夜英文：Halloween，华语地区常将万圣夜称为万圣节。 1 / 8

一、单词 1.像刚过去的万圣节，南瓜灯（Jack-O-Lantern）是必不可少的装饰品，根据传说，一个 个呲牙瞪目的南瓜灯会保护四出串门讨糖果的小孩子们不受邪恶侵扰。从字面上翻译是pumpkin lamp 2.万圣夜英语：Halloween为..All Hallows' Eve的缩写。 3.万圣节All Hallows' Day = Hallowma s4. candy 糖果 5. “咬苹果”bobbing for apples 6. 太妃糖苹果toffee apples 二、句子 1.万圣节快乐！Happy Halloween ！Happy Hallowmas ! 2. 在苏格兰，小孩要糖果时会说：“The sky is blue, the grass is green, may we have our Halloween.”（天是蓝色，草是绿色，齐来庆祝万圣节前夜），然后以唱歌跳舞等表演来博得糖果。 3. 三、万圣夜及来源 1.万圣节，在每年的10月31日，是西方世界的传统节日，主要流行于撒克逊人后裔云集的美国、不列颠群岛、澳大利亚、加拿大和新西兰等西方国家。当晚小孩会穿上化妆服，戴上面具，挨家挨户收集糖果。 2. 起源 万圣节与圣诞节和复活节一样都是来自于天主教对其它宗教的节日的吸收、改造和重新诠释。万圣夜起源于不列颠凯尔特人的传统节日，在10月的最后一天，他们相信这是夏天的终结，冬天的开始，这一天是一年的重要标志，是最重要的节日之一，被称为“死人之日”，或者“鬼节”。这一天各种恶鬼出没，死去人们的灵魂也会离开身体，在世间游走，这一天的晚上也就格外危险。为了吓走邪恶的鬼魂，凯尔特人会戴上面具 外在基督宗教方面，早期的大公教会受到罗马政府的强烈逼迫，有很多基督徒殉道，以后，常有基督徒到这些殉道者致命的地方举行追思活动。后来，因为殉道者众多，故此就有教会设立了专门的日子来纪念。按历史文献，最早如此纪念的是安提约基雅（Antioch）教会，当时纪念的日子是每年圣神降临后的第一个主日。后来教宗格里高利三世（Pope Gregory III，690-741）在罗马圣伯多禄大殿中，把一座小堂奉献给诸圣，并把纪念诸圣的日期改为每年的11月1日。在这个圣日中，教会纪念所有的圣徒，用以表彰他们的圣德，并使教会视他们为效法的楷模。诸圣日的第二天，为诸灵日（All Souls Day），是主后998年，法国克隆尼（Cluny）隐修院的院长圣奥迪罗（St. Odilo）推广的，用以纪念凡在基督里去世的信徒。此日也可以是基督徒扫墓的日子。万圣节和鬼节的习俗，主要是在英伦三岛和北美的前英属殖民地，也就是美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、新西兰等地。其中美国的万圣夜传统，最初由来自爱尔兰和苏格兰的移民于19世纪传入，而其他发达国家则于20世纪末受美国流行文化影响而开始庆祝万圣夜。
圣诞节的由来（英文介绍） 圣诞节的来历圣诞节是基督教世界最大的节日。4世纪初，1月6日是罗马帝国东部各教会纪念耶稣降生和受洗的双重节日、称为主显节(亦称显现节)即上帝通过耶稣向世人显示自己。当时只有耶路撒冷的教会例外，那里只纪念耶稣的诞生而不纪念耶稣的受洗。后来历史学家们在罗马基督徒习用的日历中发现公元354年12月25日页内记录着：基督降生在犹大的伯利恒。经过研究，一般认为12月25日为圣诞节，可能开始于公元336年的罗马教会，约在公元375年传到小亚细亚的安提阿，公元430年传到埃及的亚历山大里亚，耶路撒冷的教会接受得最晚，而亚美尼亚的教会则仍然坚持1月6日主显节是耶稣的诞辰。 The origins of Christmas Christmas is the world's largest Christian festival. 4 of the century, January 6 is the Roman Empire, the eastern churches to commemorate the birth of Jesus and the baptism of the double festival, known as Epiphany (also known as Epiphany ), that is God himself through Jesus Christ to the world. The exception was only the church in Jerusalem, where only the commemoration of the birth of Jesus rather than to commemorate the baptism of
October 31 On October 31st, dozens of children dressed in costumes(节日服装)knock on their neighbors' doors and yell "Trick or Treat" when the door opens. Pirates and princesses, ghosts and popular heroes of the day all hold bags open to catch the candy or other goodies that the neighbors drop in. As they give each child a treat the neighbors exclaim over the costumes and try to guess who is under the masks. Since the 800's November 1st is a religious holiday known as All Saints' Day(万圣节). The Mass that was said on this day was called Allhallowmas. The evening before became known as All Hakkiw e'en, or Halloween. Like some other American celebrations, its origins lie in both pre-Christian and Christian customs. October 31 st was the eve of the Celtic(凯尔特人的)new year. The Celts were the ancestors of the present-day Irish, Welsh and Scottish people. On this day ghosts walked and mingled with the living, or so the Celts thought. The townspeople baked food all that day and when night fell they dressed up and tried to resemble the souls of the dead. Hoping that the ghosts would leave peacefully before midnight of the new year. Much later, when Christianity spread throughout Ireland and October 31 was no longer the last day of the year, Halloween became a celebration mostly for children. "Ghosts" went from door to door asking for treats, or else a trick would be played on the owners of the house. When millions of Irish people immigrated to the United States in the 1840s the tradition came with them. Today' school dances and neighborhood parties called "block parties" are popular among young and old alike. More and more adults celebrate Halloween. They dress up like historical or political figures and go to masquerade parties(化妆舞会). In larger cities, costumed children and their parents gather at shopping malls early in the evening. Stores and businesses give parties with games and treats for the children.T eenagers enjoy costume dances at their schools and the more outrageous the costume the better! Certain pranks(恶作剧)such as soaping car windows and tipping over garbage cans are expected. But partying and pranks are not the only things that Halloweeners enjoy doing. Some collect money to buy food and medicine for needy children around the world. Symbols of Halloween Halloween originated as a celebration connected with evil spirits. Witches flying on broomsticks with black cats, ghosts, goblins(小精灵)and skeletons have all evolved as symbols of Halloween. They are popular trick-or-treat costumes and decorations for greeting cards and windows. Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. In the weeks before October 31, Americans decorate windows of houses and schools with silhouettes(轮廓)of witches and black cats.
1.万圣节的庆祝活动来源于每年11月1日的all hallows day 或all saints day。它原先是异教徒们纪念死者的节日，但是逐渐演变成一个纪念基督圣者的节日。 halloween这个词来自于all hallows eve(夜晚)，all hallows eve是all hallows day 前一天的缩写。人们认为在当天晚上，亡者的灵魂会重新复活！ 3. dressing up in costumes is one of the most popular halloween customs, especially among children. according to tradition, people would dress up in costumes (wear special clothing, masks or disguises) to frighten the spirits away. dressing up in costumes是最受欢迎的万圣节风俗之一，尤其是受孩子们的欢迎。按照传统习俗，人们会dress up in costumes（穿戴一些特?的服?，面具或者装饰）来吓跑鬼魂。 4. popular halloween costumes include vampires (creatures that drink blood), ghosts (spirits of the dead) and werewolves (people that turn into wolves when the moon is full). 流行的万圣节服装包括vampires（吸血鬼），ghosts（死者的灵魂）和werewolves（每当月圆时就变成狼形的人）。 5. trick or treating is a modern halloween custom where children go from house to house dressed in costume, asking for treats like candy or toys. if they dont get any treats, they might play a trick (mischief or prank) on the owners of the house. trick or treating 是现代万圣节的风俗。孩子们穿着特殊的衣服走街串巷，讨取糖果和玩具之类的赏赐。如果他们得不到任何的赏赐，就可能会对屋主大搞恶作剧或者胡闹了。 jack o lantern 的传统来自于一个民间传说。一个名叫jack的人戏弄了恶魔，之后就不得不提着一盏灯在地球上流浪。jack o lantern是用雕刻成脸型，中间挖空，再插上蜡烛的南瓜做 halloween one story about jack, an irishman, who was not allowed into heaven because he was stingy with his money. so he was sent to hell. but down there he played tricks on the devil (satan), so he was kicked out of hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern. well, irish children made jacks lanterns on october 31st from a large potato or turnip, hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside. and irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village halloween festival that honored the druid god muck olla. the irish name for these lanterns was jack with the lantern or jack of the lantern, abbreviated as jack-o-lantern and now spelled jack-o-lantern. the traditional halloween you can read about in most books was just childrens fun night. halloween celebrations would start in october in every elementary school.children would make halloween decorations, all kinds of orange-paper jack-o-lanterns. and from black paper youd cut scary designs ---an evil witch with a pointed hat riding through the sky on a broomstick, maybe with black bats flying across the moon, and that meant bad luck. and of course black cats for more bad luck. sometimes a black cat would ride away into the sky on the back of the witchs broom. oh! heres a ghost. oh, theres a witch. oh, heres an old lady. 注释： 1. was stingy with：对??吝啬。stingy这个词你可不要去模仿，因为他是“吝啬的”
万圣节英文介绍 篇一：万圣节相关英语词汇 大家普遍认为10月31日是万圣节,实际上这并不是完全正确。更确切地说,10月31日的晚上称作万圣节前夜（The Eve of All Hallows）或是万圣节之夜（The eve of All Saints’ Day）,因为11月1日是天下圣徒之日（All Hallows Day）,只不过为了方便,逐渐演变成了万圣节（Halloween）。最近几年,万圣节在国内变得流行起来,但是有些有关万圣节的小知识,却并没有很多人知道。我们来看看万圣节都有哪些不太为人所知的小知识吧。 Jack-o’-lantern 南瓜灯 说到万圣节,就免不了联想到南瓜灯。南瓜灯的英文名是Jack-o’-lantern,让人不禁好奇,这Jack-o’-lantern里的Jack究竟是谁呢？为什么南瓜灯以他的名字命名呢？ 根据牛津英语词典（Oxford English Dictionary）的记载,在17世纪,Jack-o’-lantern的本意是“一个提着灯笼的男人;守夜人”,在这里,Jack这个名字可以指代任何人,就像jack of all trades（万事通）里的Jack一样。到了1673年,Jack-o’-lantern这个词又被赋予了新的含义,指代户外出现的神秘亮光,也就是鬼火（will-o’-the-wisp）。 每年万圣节前夜制作灯笼的习俗起源于不列颠群岛（the British Isles）,不过当时人们用的不是南瓜,而是大头菜（turnip）。后来在
北美洲,人们发现南瓜更容易掏空,就选择了南瓜来做灯笼,渐渐地,Jack-o’-lantern就用来指代南瓜灯了。 Trick-or-Treating 不给糖,就捣乱 对于孩子们来说,万圣节最重要的的活动就是“trick or treat（不给糖就捣乱）”了,不过这个习俗也是后来才有的。虽然在20世纪早期,北美洲的年轻人就有在万圣节之夜穿奇装异服、雕刻南瓜灯的习俗,不过却没有挨家挨户讨糖果的说法。倒是在19世纪,苏格兰以及英格兰某些地区的孩子们有着guising（穿化装服并常带面具登门拜访）和souling（富人要向祷告者分发食物）的习惯。牛津英语语料库（Oxford English Corpus）中说道,trick or treat相当于guising 的现代版。 Mischief Night 恶作剧之夜 虽说孩子们嘴里喊着“不给糖就捣乱”,但他们并不会真的做出什么坏事,一般来说,他们的家长都会陪在他们身边。相反,在北美洲,恶作剧会发生在万圣节之前的10月30日的夜晚,青少年们会砸南瓜,扔鸡蛋,用厕纸来装饰树木。 篇二：万圣节介绍：英文版 智课网IELTS备考资料 万圣节介绍：英文版 摘要：万圣节是西方国家的传统节日,很受西方人的重视,为了让大
关于圣诞节的英语手抄报资料 Christmas, annual Christian holiday commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. Most members of the Roman Catholic Church and followers of Protestantism celebrate Christmas on December 25, and many celebrate on the evening of December 24 as well.
