1:德国和荷兰在12月6日庆祝类似英国国家的圣尼古拉斯日.

荷兰语称作Sinterklaasavond的日子要比圣诞节重要的多,

虽然近年来一些荷兰人也开始庆祝平安夜和圣诞节.

SINTERKLASS会在12月5日给企求礼物的小朋友带来礼物.

他的装束是红色的主教外套和主教发冠,骑着一匹白色骏马在房顶间穿梭.

在德国,圣诞节的庆祝在大部分地区仍然是传统之一.

而圣诞大餐要在12月25日享用,主菜一般是家禽.

圣诞礼物是与圣尼古拉斯长的很像的圣诞老人带来的.

Germany and the Netherlands celebrate the 6th of December very much the same way the English celebrate the St. Nicolas Day. What is called in Dutch, Sinterklassvond, is more important than Christmas, although in recent years some Dutch began celebrating Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Sinterklass brings gifts to children that long for them on December 5th. He wears red robe and bishop hat, and rides a white house between roofs. In Germany, Christmas Celebration is still a tradition in many regions. Yet Christmas Feast is served on December 25th, the main dish usually being domestic poultry and Christmas gifts being brought by Santa Claus who looks very much like St. Nicolas.

2:意大利人的圣诞节融合了现代传统及罗马祖先遗留下的习俗.

食物,宗教仪式圣诞摆设和送礼都是重点项目.

在某些地区,礼物是由LABEFANA于显现节送出的,

其他的地区则由小耶稣于圣诞节或平安夜送出.

In Italy, Christmas is a combination of modern traditions and customs left by their Roman ancestors. Food, religious ritual, Christmas ornament and gifts are all important to consider. In some regions, gifts are sent by La Befana at Epiphany. In other places, little Jesus Christ on Christmas eve or Christmas Day.
