En France, il y a des fêtes civiles ou religieuses. Certains de ces fêtes sont légales et ces jours-la, dits on ne travaille pas. Il y a en France, dix jours féries.
Le 2 février, on fête la purification de la Vierge. La tradition est de manger des crêpes et de les faire sauter dans la poêle d’une main en tenant une pièce de monnaie dans l’autre main. C’est, dit-on une garantie de bonheur et de prospérité.
Pendant la période des fêtes de Pâques, les confiseurs, les boulangers, les pâtissiers vendent des confiseries au chocolat en forme d’œufs, de poules, de cloches, etc.
La fête nationale commémore la prise de la Bastille en 1789 et la fête de la fédération en 1790. Les militaires défilent dans les grandes villes et le soir on danse dans la rue et on tire des feux d’artifice.
En France, le Père Noel existe ! Si, pendant le mois de décembre, vous écrivez au Père Noel, il vous répondra. En effet, un service spécial est mis en place par l’administration des postes pendant le période des fêtes. Ce service s’efforce de répondre à toutes les lettres adressées au Père Noël.
Translation
In France, there are both civil and religious festivals. Certain festivals are legal and on those days which are called public holidays, they do not work. There are ten public holidays in France.
February 2, the French celebrate the purification of the Virgin Mary. It is the tradition to eat crepes and to make them flip in the pan with one hand while holding onto a coin in the other hand. The French say that it guarantees happiness and prosperity.
During the Easter celebration, candy makers, bread makers, and pastry makers sell chocolate candies shaped like eggs, chickens and bells.
The national holiday commemorates the capture of the Bastille in 1780 and the federation formed in 1790. The military parades in the big cities and at night people dance in the road and have fireworks.
In France, Santa Clause exists. If you write to Santa Clause during December, he will respond. In fact, a special service is put in place by the postal service during this period. This service does its best to respond to all the letters written to Santa Clause.
