Day of the Dead: A Day to Remember!
Day of the Dead and Mexico’s festivities Mexico has many annual celebrations, but one of the most iconic is the Day of the Dead. Along with the Day of the Dead and its various festivals and carnivals, the country has several other great celebrations, each with its own unique quirks and fun things to do! Almost all of the country’s national holidays are designed as an opportunity to remember Mexico’s heritage and enjoy its culture. For example, the February carnivals in cities such as Veracruz, Ciudad de México and Mérida celebrate Mexico’s religious and indigenous heritage. Of course, some are more serious and celebrate important political events, such as Mexico’s Independence Day on 16 September. The Day of the Dead could be seen as something in between: remembering our deceased family members is serious, yes, but why not celebrate their lives instead of mourning their deaths? What is Day of the Dead all about? The Day of the Dead tradition blends Mesoamerican rituals with some elements of European religions and dates back 3,000 years. The Aztec and Nahua people believed that death was as important as life because they saw the universe as a cycle of birth and death of all things. So instead of seeing death as the end, they saw it as another step on the journey. In the myth of the Day of the Dead, a person travels to Chicunamictlán, or the Land of the Dead, where they die. The soul’s goal is to reach its final resting place, known as Mictlán. The festival takes place every year between 31 October and 2 November.

The USA: A place for everyone | Discover the languages spoken in the USA The USA has always been known for its diversity. Many languages are spoken in the USA. More than three billion people call the United States of America home. Due to its diverse population before British colonization and several waves of immigration, you can find almost every language and cultural background in the US population. The USA has been multilingual since the very beginning. Many languages were spoken in the USA, even before the first settlers set foot on its soil. Tribes, such as the Navajos, Sioux and Keresan spoke over a thousand known languages before first contact with Europeans. Evolution of the English language in the USA When considering why and how a language develops, there are several factors to consider. One of the most important is culture. It is said that the influence of foreign languages spoken in the USA is much more immediate and recent than in any other country. The English language has developed a lot in the USA. For example, some terms have been taken from the languages of the native tribes, such as the word “raccoon”, which was taken from the Powhatan term aroughcun, meaning “animal that scratches with its hands”. You can easily find examples of words being coined from many other languages! Other well-known examples are avocado and canyon from Spanish, and chowder and prairie from French.
