CHRISMATS VOCABULARY


Note : We can use these words with or without 'Christmas' before them. A lot of Christmas vocabulary can be used with or without the word ‘Christmas’ in front of it.

For example : we can talk about ‘Christmas crackers’ or just ‘crackers’:

1- a cracker (n): a small paper tube which is pulled from each end by two people at Christmas time. It makes a sharp bang (or 'crack') when it is pulled and inside there is a toy and a joke written on a small piece of paper.

2-a carol (n): a religious song (hymn) or non-religious song about Christmas wrapping paper (n): specially decorated paper (usually with pictures of snowmen, Christmas trees, Santa Claus (etc.) used to wrap Christmas gifts.

3- wrapping paper (n): specially decorated paper (usually with pictures of snowmen, Christmas trees, Santa Claus (etc.) used to wrap Christmas gifts.
