Madagascar is an Island off the east coast of Africa, so it is very warm at Christmas time in Madagascar! Even though it's hot, common decorations include holly, robins and snow even though none of them exist in Madagascar!The official language of Madagascar is Malagasy.Most Madagascan's only exchange small presents. In Madagascar, Santa Claus is called 'Dadabe Noely'.Most people go to Church on Christmas Eve in Madagascar. The services start about 5.00pm and last until after midnight!After the Christmas Eve or Christmas Day service, churches give out sweets or biscuits to the people in the Church.
thes are some cristmas carols:
Sambasamba Zanahary (Which means 'It's a big opportunity Lord that you send your only Son to save us from our sin')
Sambasamba, Zanahary
Tamin'ny nampidinanao
Ny Zanakao malalanao
Mba hisolo ny helokay
Tamin'ny nampidinanao
Ny Zanakao, malalanao, malalanao
Mba hisolo ny helokay
Welcome to blogging, Kärt! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is great to read your overviews about Christmas in China and Madagascar - I have learned something new from them, too!
There are just two things I would like to turn your attention to:
1. In the instructions, it is said: 'write at
least 5-sentence overviews of these on your blog, adding at least two reasons why you think they are interesting'. Currently your reasons are missing, but you can add them by editing your blog post.
2. Your introduction is missing: 'As the title, please type About me and write at least 5 sentences in English to introduce yourself.'
Looking forward to reading your postings!
