Learn the Simple Future Tense

traditions are the present our forefather have left for  all of us.traditional holidays are the most welcomed.haha.that’s it.                  ：D  

my country is full of traditions which are different for each part of it and all of them are really nice.they’re amazing!

My family has some traditions on the Lunar New Year. For example, a few weeks before the new year, my Mom normally buy different kinds of food that we can eat during the lunar month ; especially a big container for containing rice must always be filled with rice with the desire that we always have enough in everything.

Thanks God, my family doesn’t have traditions!!

this is a thing of the past, and I don’t look forward to have one.

My family has blueberry pancakes for breakfast every Christmas morning after we open our gifts.  I don’t know when my family started this tradition, but I have done it for as long as I can remember.

In Russia we have a lot of tradition which often we do not find in other countries..i think this happened because Russia had other way of development country,culture etc.  than Europe or Asian countries. We have like mix culture( Asian and Europen)...but i want to tell you about my favourite holiday . It is a New Year!! 

Long ago in Russia this holiday was celebrating in the first day of September, but now we have it in night from 31 december till 1 january, it is magic night , i do not  tell about it because you know it yourself!))))so, in the first, we start to celebrate a 

Christmas(Catholic christmas), then we celebrate our NEW YEAR,further we start to prepare to the Orthodox Christmas (7 january ) and celebrate it too)

The next holiday, a foreighn people do not understand because his name is ‘Old new year’!!!it is paradox but it possible , because a lot of years ago in this day was celebrating New year ! But it is not end . There is Chinese new year which is in ending of January. And in Russian people celebrating this day very funny )))

haha , so in Russian people( not all ) celebrating New year 5 times + we have the opportunity meet new year more times if move from one time zone to other. it’s possibly too ))

thanks for your attention

I think tradition is important and sometimes boring:| but in my opinion it is essentional because in some way it shows the culture of people and the country

I think traditions are important to be created.. but they r just not needed to be reviewed every 5 years.. i won’t make any sense. Any centuries old traditions that we have now would not have survived if our forefathers did the same.

i do love tradition because i can feel each precious moments starts from childhood where each year family celebrate Christmas and family gathering.

i think we should keep the traditions, for future living. teaches children to be polite to the elders and respect others people. Tradition festival where family get to there reunion on each year.

Julissita: Yeah! Your story made my mouth water) My mom has been sometimes making festival cakes on her own on birthdays and New Year, but unfortunately, that happends not annually. Perhaps, in case all man every year anticipated her bake that ones she would have nothing left to do apart from baking these cakes)))) In such a manner it migth be more traditional, you know)) 

Nevertheless, I hope food is not such a thing making you gather whenas the feeling of familial propinquity does take place in more significant extent ;-) 

Must confess, desputable issue. I’ve got two opposite points of view tearing me apart.
On the one hand, traditions are really central to our cultural self-organization representing a kind of a gateway through centuries, from past generations to present and future ones, as it’s been mentioned above. Besides, it helps us feel ourselves like a part of something huge (within family, city or even country).
On the other hand, intentions of being extraordinary and ignoring customs become a mere chore or an intolerable stupid occasion are truly fair and logical.
Thus, in my family we follow some traditions set up by relligion and common festivals mostly (New Year, Christmas, Easter and so on), even though they aren’t compulsory and we don’t do such things if we don’t want to or we can’t.

Traditions are a very interesting topic. When we are a child, we feel like everything is a little bit boring or we do not enjoy it at all. However, it is something that we need to life, just enjoy the moment and be happy, because when we spend time with our parents, grandparents and relatives are the best moments in our lives.

Talking about traditions, the most populars are New year, Christmas and Easters.

My family just have dinner and spend time talking about how life is going. We make some mexican traditions and that’s all.

Never think that traditions are boring just try to enjoy every minute 

  iranian new year                                                                                                                              Iranians are mostly Muslims and celebrate the New Year on the first day of their spring.

There festivals known asNoruzorNowruzand falls on the 21 March according to the Gregorian calendar. The first month is known as Favardin and Noruz falls on this day.

They know when the New Year is upon them as in each town and village a cannon is sounded at the precise moment until it is heard they don’t start their celebrations. They prepare for several weeks before hand.

In preparing they have to grow grains of wheat, barley or lentils to use as decorations for their houses. This decoration is a symbol for growth and prosperity and must be kept in the house for thirteen day after which it is thrown into the river.

They clean their houses during the days leading up to the New Year and they either make or buy new clothes for themselves and their family. If they cannot afford to much they try to have at least one piece of new clothing often a pair of shoes.

A special table is set up with seven articles which all must begin with the letter “s” for Haft-sin. They are:
Sonbul – hyacinth
Sabzeh – green shoots grown from grain
Samanoo – a sweet pudding made of green wheat
Serkeh – vinegar
Sumac – a herb
Seeb – an apple
Senjed – bohemian olives.

Other objects are a bowl of colored eggs, candles, a mirror and a bowl of rose water.

They also must have a copy of their holy book the Koran, on the New Year table.

After the cannon have sounded people visit their relatives to wish them a happy New Year. The elders give the younger ones a silver or gold coin this is known asaidi. Everyone then gathers around the New Year table for a special feast, which includes traditional dishes such as Baklava, Nune Shekari which is a sugar biscuits and Badam Choragi which is are almond biscuits.

In Persia now Iran people used to exchange eggs as gifts on New Year’s Day, to suggest the idea of new life beginning.

A few weeks before the Iran New Year, people put grains of wheat or barley in a little dish to grow. By the time New Year arrives the grains have produced shoots. This is done to remind people of spring and a new year of life.

Some people in Iran light fires at New Year and jump over them. This is done in hope that they receive good luck.

Are we talking about traditions of nations or traditions of families??

As Turkish nation we have a lot of traditions but in my family have a few. Our tradition in my family is too meet in our village in summers every year and cook our traditional meals.
