12 - Happy Maslenitsa!

from Slow Russian

In this episode we're talking about the great Russian holiday - Maslenitsa. It dates back to IX century! And we still celebrate it nowadays.  Text: Одним из самых весёлых праздников в России считается Масленица. Это праздник прощания с зимой и встречи весны. Такая традиция появилась ещё до принятия на Руси христианства. Масленицу отмечают целую неделю. В 2016 году она празднуется с 7 по 13 марта. Главным блюдом на столе, конечно, являются русские блины. Они круглые, жёлтые, горячие, прямо как солнце. К блинам подают разные начинки – икра, солёная рыба, творог, варенье, фрукты. В наши дни в парках часто устраивают большие гуляния. Люди едят горячие блины, танцуют под народную музыку, участвуют в забавных соревнованиях. Главная традиция во время Масленицы – сжигание чучела зимы. Его делают из соломы или старых тряпок, наряжают в женскую одежду, красят и поджигают. Это символизирует конец зимы. Последнее воскресенье Масленицы называется «прощённое Воскресенье». В этот день все просятдруг у друга прощения. Когда кто-то говорит вам «прости меня», вы должны отвечать «Бог простит». *** Slow Russian Podcast Transcript and audio download for $20 – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/courses/slowrussian  Join my free email course with A LOT of useful materials for self-learning – http://realrussianclub.com/subscribe  My premium step-by-step course for Russian language learners – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/ Get all three levels together and save $102 – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/bundles/all-of-from-zero-to-fluency  UNDERSTANDING RUSSIA (new cultural course, no knowledge of Russian language required)–  https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/courses/understanding-russia
