Hi. First thing first. Thank you so much for making this great video about Christmas traditions since I'm a culturally-enthusiast person. In Iran we celebrate Yalda night as a second popular celebration but our most important celebration is Norouz which marks the begining of the new year and it starts at the begining of spring. 😍😍😍😁😁

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Thanks so much for sharing! I have heard about Norouz and seen many pictures of the celebration. I would love to join in that celebration some day!

The video is amazing that gives great information about the culture of the U.S. It's helpful for new immigrants like me. Thank you so much.

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Hi Nguyen! I'm glad you found it helpful! Let me know if you have other suggestions for topics that would be helpful for new immigrants.

Merry Christmas Professor! I hope you and your family being healthy, happy and safe.

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Thanks, Bao! Same to you!

You're such a very nice and intelligent lady who knows everything about Christmas. I love The Nutcracker so much, it's one of my absolute favorite Christmas traditions, the music really inspired me to be more productive in life.

Thank you so much!

Hello and Merry Christmas to both you and your family! It was very thoughtful of you to post this explanatory video on how Americans usually celebrate Christmas. Stay safe and have a good one!

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Feliz Natal, Rodrigo! I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday.

I thought it was super interesting, and you mentioned my country! Thank you very much, here in Brazil, we appreciate American culture a lot, it's so similar to our culture too, Merry Christmas! 😄 even though it's a new year, which has entered!

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Glad you enjoyed it! I mentioned Brazil because it's my second home. My husband is from São Paulo, and we spend a month there every year :) I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and happy New Year!

I really like to know more about Native American’s culture, thank you for making this kinds of videos and also I would love to see the next videos of American culture such as American food, holidays, music, clothes...etc. Thank you 😊

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

Thank you for the suggestions, Samira! I will make more videos about American culture because my students from previous semesters requested that, too. Please note that "Native American" is used for the indigenous people who lived here before the Europeans arrived, so this video is not about Native American culture. 😊

The most important festival in my country is New Year, which falls on the 30th of the lunar year. Families will get together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner. By the way, I really love this video. It's intriguing. ❤

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Where are you from? What do you eat for the New Year’s Eve dinner? 😃

[@rainflaw6934]

@@LearnAcademicEnglish I‘m from China. On New Year's Eve, many kinds of meat are eaten, such as chicken, beef, fish, mutton, and so on. We also cook a few vegetables to eat because it's greasy to eat meat only. All the dishes are very spicy in my home. because people in my family particularly love spicy food, including me.

[@LearnAcademicEnglish]

That sounds like a fun holiday meal! Thanks for sharing!
