Researchers at the University of Glasgow found a total of 421 words for snow in Scots. According to the list published, that includestongue-twisters such as “fl indrikin” for a light snow shower and “feefl e” for a fl urry of snow.

Mistletoe ...Mistletoe has been an element of Christmas decoration for much longer than Christmas trees, which fi rst came into living rooms in the 18th century. Mistletoe is particularly important in English-speaking countries. Tradition has it that if two people kiss under the mistletoe, they will be a happy couple. According to age-old tradition, a young woman cannot refuse a kiss when under the mistletoe. If a woman is not kissed under the mistletoe, tradition has it that she should expect to stay single for another year.

New year, good luck ...It is well known in Germany that pigs bring good luck at new year. People give each other pink marzipan pigs – often together with a chimney sweep on top and a lucky penny or four-leafed clover in its mouth. The bristly animal has long been considered a symbol of wealth and riches thanks to its fertility and strength. The statistical average birth rate for sows is 2.3 times per year and the average number of rosy children is 23 per year. “Having a pig” thus entered the German language as a saying for “being lucky”.
