PORTUGUESE
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,840
Olá.
2
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,720
Esta semana vai celebrar-se a Páscoa
3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:04,680
e, por isso,
4
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,520
hoje vou falar-vos sobre a Páscoa
5
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:08,640
em Portugal.
6
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,080
Sendo um país maioritariamente cristão,
7
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,000
muitas coisas acontecem nesta altura
8
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,880
do ano em Portugal.
9
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,360
Ao contrário de outras celebrações
10
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,640
como o Natal, por exemplo,
11
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,360
a Páscoa muda de data todos os anos.
12
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:26,360
Essa data
13
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,480
depende de quando
14
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,160
a primeira lua cheia
15
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,920
foi após o início da primavera
16
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,440
no hemisfério norte
17
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,880
ou outono no hemisfério sul.
18
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,320
Parece bastante complicado, certo?
19
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:43,240
Na verdade,
20
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,320
esse cálculo é chamado de Computus
21
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,480
em Latim e vem dos tempos medievais.
22
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:51,960
Falando em nomes,
23
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,920
o nome português Páscoa vem
24
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:55,440
o nome português Páscoa vem
25
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,040
do substantivo hebraico Peseach,
26
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,680
que simboliza a passagem
27
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,040
da escravidão para a liberdade.
28
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,160
Na verdade,
29
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,720
essa é a principal mensagem da Páscoa,
30
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,640
pois celebramos a morte
31
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,280
e ressurreição de Jesus,
32
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,240
que os cristãos
33
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,960
acreditam ter levado à libertação
34
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:19,440
das almas humanas do pecado.
35
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,640
Em Portugal,
36
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,560
a Sexta-Feira Santa é feriado
37
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,800
e o domingo é o culminar da Páscoa,
38
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,720
pois celebramos
39
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,000
a ressurreição de Cristo.
40
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,640
O chamado Domingo de Páscoa.
41
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:33,520
No entanto,
42
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,440
a preparação para a Páscoa
43
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,640
começa 40 dias antes,
44
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,280
no início da Quaresma,
45
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,920
que é um tempo de meditação,
46
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,880
reflexão e espiritualidade
47
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,240
para os cristãos.
48
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,120
Algumas pessoas também jejuam,
49
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,920
abstendo-se de carne, por exemplo.
50
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,920
Uma tradição mais recente em Portugal
51
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,840
é a caça aos ovos.
52
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,040
Normalmente,
53
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,200
os adultos escondem ovos de chocolate
54
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,240
para as crianças
55
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,240
encontrarem e todos se divertem muito.
56
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,080
Outra coisa
57
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,240
que as crianças fazem também
58
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,320
é pintar os ovos de galinha
59
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,360
de várias cores para os transformarem
60
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,200
em ovos da Páscoa.
61
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,960
Este amigo aqui é o coelhinho da Páscoa
62
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320
e ele também é um novo símbolo
63
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,520
da Páscoa para os miúdos.
64
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,320
Estes jogos são feitos
65
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,920
muitas vezes em família
66
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:34,440
e a Páscoa é na generalidade
67
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,120
uma celebração passada em família também.
68
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,440
Em Portugal,
69
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,760
o prato mais comum na Páscoa
70
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,120
é o cabrito.
71
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,320
Este é o filhote da cabra e a carne
72
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,480
é muito tenra
73
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,960
e tem um sabor muito distinto.
74
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,600
Para os vegetarianos
75
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,200
existem agora algumas alternativas.
76
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,680
E eu sou uma daquelas pessoas
77
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,960
que já não consegue comer
78
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:01,720
um animal bebé,
79
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,320
mas esta é a tradição em Portugal,
80
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,720
para já.
81
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,560
Há também bons doces e sobremesas.
82
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,040
Temos uma
83
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,880
espécie de pão doce chamado Folar,
84
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,320
que é muito bom e típico da Páscoa.
85
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,920
Se nunca experimentaram, têm que o fazer
86
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:22,640
quando e se puderem.
87
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:27,600
Mas como desejar uma feliz Páscoa em Português?
88
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,520
Bem, estas são as formas mais comuns:
89
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,160
Feliz Páscoa ou Páscoa Feliz.
90
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,400
Pode dizer-se de ambas as formas,
91
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,720
pois neste caso
92
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,520
não importa se o adjetivo vem antes
93
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,800
ou depois de substantivo.
94
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,200
É um pouco artístico dizer
95
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,920
Feliz Páscoa.
96
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,960
Então não tenham medo de o dizer assim.
97
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,160
Boa Páscoa!
98
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,560
Esta é mais uma forma de desejar
99
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,400
uma Feliz Páscoa.
100
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,000
Não se esqueçam de que o adjetivo
101
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,280
bom tem que ser trocado por boa
102
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,160
porque Páscoa é uma palavra feminina.
103
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,720
A Páscoa.
104
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,840
No caso de Feliz Páscoa,
105
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,640
o adjetivo não muda
106
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,160
para feminino, pois termina em z.
107
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,960
Então, digam-me
108
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,280
como é que se passa
109
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,600
a Páscoa no vosso país?
110
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,480
Também fazem a caça aos ovos?
111
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,560
Não se esqueçam
112
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,080
de mo dizer nos comentários.
113
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,600
E já agora, se quiserem saber mais
114
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:34,680
sobre a cultura
115
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,840
e também a língua portuguesas,
116
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:38,360
vão ver a minha escola
117
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,960
e os meus cursos.
118
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,240
Eu vou deixar o link na descrição
119
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,560
para vocês.
120
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560
Beijinhos e Feliz Páscoa.
ENGLISH:
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,840
Hello.
2
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,720
This week Easter is celebrated
3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:04,680
and, therefore,
4
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,520
today I will speak about Easter
5
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:08,640
in Portugal.
6
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,080
Being mostly a Christian country,
7
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,000
Portugal sees a lot of things happening
8
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,880
around this time of the year.
9
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,360
On the contrary to other celebrations,
10
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,640
for example Christmas,
11
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,360
Easter changes dates every year.
12
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:26,360
This date
13
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,480
depends on when
14
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,160
the first full moon
15
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,920
was after the beginning of Spring
16
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,440
in the Northern Hemisphere
17
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,880
or Fall in the Southern Hemisphere.
18
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,320
It seems rather complicated, right?
19
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:43,240
Actually,
20
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,320
this calculation is called Computus
21
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,480
in Latin and it comes from the medieval ages.
22
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaking about names,
23
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,920
in Portuguese Easter is Páscoa and
24
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:55,440
in Portuguese Easter is Páscoa and
25
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,040
it comes from the Hebrew noun Peseach,
26
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,680
which symbolises the passage
27
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,040
from slavery to freedom.
28
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,160
Actually,
29
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,720
that is the main message of Easter,
30
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,640
since we celebrate the Death
31
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,280
and Resurrection of Jesus,
32
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,240
which Christians
33
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,960
believe led to the freeing
34
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:19,440
of the Human souls from Sin.
35
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,640
In Portugal,
36
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,560
Holy Friday is a holiday
37
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,800
and Sunday is the culmination of Easter,
38
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,720
since we celebrate
39
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,000
the Resurrection of Christ.
40
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,640
We call it Easter Sunday.
41
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:33,520
However,
42
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,440
the preparation for Easter
43
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,640
starts 40 days before,
44
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,280
at the beginning of Lent,
45
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,920
which is a time for meditation,
46
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,880
reflection and spirituality
47
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,240
for Christians.
48
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,120
Some people also fast,
49
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,920
abstaining from meat, for example.
50
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,920
A more recent tradition in Portugal
51
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,840
is the egg hunt.
52
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,040
Normally,
53
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,200
adults hide chocolate eggs
54
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,240
for the children
55
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,240
to find and everyone has a lot of fun!
56
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,080
Another thing
57
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,240
that children also do
58
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,320
is colour eggs
59
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,360
in various colors to transform them
60
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,200
into Easter eggs.
61
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,960
This friend here is the Easter Bunny
62
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320
and he is also a new symbol
63
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,520
of Easter for the children.
64
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,320
These games are often
65
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,920
played with the family
66
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:34,440
and Easter is generally speaking a
67
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,120
celebration that is also spent with family.
68
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,440
In Portugal,
69
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,760
the most common dish in Easter
70
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,120
is the baby goat.
71
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,320
This is the baby of the goat and the meat is
72
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,480
very tender
73
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,960
and it has a very distinct taste.
74
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,600
For vegetarians,
75
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,200
there are now some alternatives.
76
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,680
And I am one of those people
77
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,960
who cannot bring myself to eat
78
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:01,720
a baby animal anymore,
79
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,320
but this is the tradition in Portugal,
80
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,720
for now.
81
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,560
There are also some good sweets and desserts.
82
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,040
We have a
83
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,880
kind of sweet bread, called Folar,
84
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,320
which is really good and that is typical from Easter.
85
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,920
If you never tried it, be sure to do so
86
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:22,640
when and if you can.
87
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:27,600
But how do you wish a Happy Easter in Portuguese?
88
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,520
Well, check out the most common ways:
89
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:36,160
Happy Easter or Happy Easter.
90
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,400
You can say both,
91
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,720
as in this case
92
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,520
it does not matter if the adjective comes before
93
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,800
or after the noun.
94
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,200
It is a bit artistic to say
95
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,920
Happy Easter.
96
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,960
So do not be afraid to use it.
97
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,160
Good Easter!
98
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,560
This is another way to wish
99
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,400
a Happy Easter.
100
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,000
Do not forget that the adjective
101
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,280
bom has to be changed into boa,
102
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,160
because Páscoa is a feminine word.
103
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,720
A Páscoa.
104
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,840
In the case of Feliz Páscoa,
105
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,640
the adjective does not change
106
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,160
to feminine, since it ends with a -z.
107
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,960
So, tell me,
108
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,280
how do you celebrate
109
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,600
Easter in your country?
110
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,480
Do you also go egg hunting?
111
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,560
Don't forget
112
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,080
to tell me in the comments.
113
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,600
Also, if you want to know more
114
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:34,680
about culture
115
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,840
and also the language in Portugal,
116
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:38,360
check out my school
117
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,960
and my courses.

00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,240
I will leave the link in the description

00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,560

120
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560
Kisses and Happy Easter.
