Čo sa vám páči najviac? (What do you like the most?)Veľkonočné tradície našich starých rodičovVeľká noc je najväčší kresťanský sviatok. Naši starí rodičia ju slávili nielen v kostole, ale aj doma, rôznymi zvykmi. Dnes vám poviem, ako to vyzeralo kedysi – bez čokoládových vajíčok, bez obchodov plných výzdob, ale s množstvom krásnych tradícií!Pred Veľkou nocou bol štyridsaťdňový pôst. To znamenalo, že ľudia nejedli mäso, ani mastené jedlá, ani sladkosti. Namiesto toho si pochutnávali na zemiakoch, cestovine, kapuste a chlebe...... Jedna z najznámejších jarných tradícií bola vynášanie Moreny ...... Na Zelený štvrtok sa dievčatá skoro ráno ponáhľali k potoku, aby sa v ňom umyli. Verili, že im voda prinesie krásu a zdravie...... Na Veľký piatok bolo všetko pokojné a tiché...... Po vážnych dňoch prišla veselá Veľkonočná nedeľa a pondelok. V nedeľu sa konečne jedlo mäso, maslo a slávnostné koláče. No a v pondelok sa chlapci vybrali za dievčatami s korbáčmi a vedrami studenej vody. Keď bol potok nablízku, chlapci odvliekli dievčatá k potoku a namočili ich do neho. V niektorých regiónoch, ich ešte pošibali korbáčmi. A viete čo? Dievčatá sa nehnevali. Nesmeli sa hnevať, pretože sa verilo, že ak ich nikto nevyšibe, ani neobleje, nebudú pekné a celý rok budú choré. A čo dostali chlapci za túto "službu"? Kraslice alebo písanky, to sú ručne maľované vajíčka, ktoré dievčatá pripravovali celé dni.Tak vidíte, Veľká noc bola kedysi plná krásnych tradícií. Niektoré dodržiavame dodnes, iné sa zmenili. Ale jedno zostáva rovnaké – Veľká noc je čas radosti, rodiny a príchodu jari. Ktorá tradícia sa vám páčila najviac?Timestamps00:33 Introduction to the episode02:28 About the Easter in Kysuce13:40 Slovak lesson18:20 Easter of out ancestors (in Slovak)20:24  Easter of out ancestors (in English)26:12 Final thoughtsIf you have any questions, send it to my email [email protected].
