LOST IN ENGLAND (CS)

2011-06-03T15:34:00.005+02:00

En un concurs radiofònic, un adolescent del nostre
país aconsegueix una entrada per anar a veure la seva
cantant preferida, que actuarà a Londres pròximament,
en el seu únic concert europeu. En el viatge perd les
maletes i l'entrada, i haurà de valer-se del seu enginy
i el seu poc anglès —que naturalment millorarà amb la
pràctica— per intentar arribar al concert a temps.

GULLIVER IN LILIPUT (THEATRE)

2011-04-14T12:13:00.006+02:00

Després d'un llarg viatge, en Gulliver torna a casa i
explica la increïble aventura que ha viscut en el remot
i desconegut país de Liliput, on les persones són minúscules,
i on ha pogut ajudar dos regnes enemics a
trobar la pau. Però abans, no sense esforç, en Gulliver
ha hagut d'aprendre la llengua d'aquests curiosos homenets:
l'anglès.
Espectacle bilingüe anglès-català, on coneixerem nou
vocabulari i expressions, i on aprendrem a acceptar a
aquells que són diferents.

Easter is the sacred celebration of Christ's resurrection from the dead. Easter is nowadays a religious celebration, but Easter was originally a pagan festival.
Today, children hunt colored eggs and place them in Easter baskets along with the modern version of real Easter eggs -- those made of plastic or chocolate candy.
The Easter Bunny is not a modern invention. The symbol originated with the pagan festival of Eastre. The goddess, Eastre, was worshipped by the Anglo-Saxons through her earthly symbol, the rabbit.
From the earliest times, the egg was a symbol of rebirth in most cultures. Eggs were often wrapped in gold leaf or, if you were a peasant, colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of certain flowers. The Germans brought the symbol of the Easter rabbit to America.

La Setmana Santa és la celebració sagrada de la ressurrecció de Crist d’entre els morts. Actualment és una celebració religiosa però originalment era una festa pagana.
Avui, la canalla caça ous colorejats i els col·loca en cistells junt amb la moderna versió d’ous de Setmana Santa – aquells fets de plàstic o xocolata.
El conill de Setmana Santa no és una invenció moderna. El símbol va ser originat amb la festa pagana de “Eastre”. La deesa, Eastre, va ser adorada pels anglosaxons a través del seu símbol terrestre, el conill. Els alemanys van dur el símbol del conill de Setmana Santa a Amèrica.
Des de fa molt de temps, l’ou és un símbol de reneixement en moltes cultures. Els ous eren freqüentment embolcallats amb paper d’or o, si eres un camperol, el colorejaves amb brillant bullint-lo amb fulles o pètals de flors.

SAINT JOHN'S FESTIVAL IN BARCELONA

2009-06-24T12:04:00.017+02:00

The summer solstice was considered the most important event of the solar year in ancient times. Fire was celebrated on this day as the symbol of abundance, purity and fertility and to this day fire and fireworks are one of the central elements in the Festival of Sant Joan, illluminating the skies of Barcelona every year!
El solstici d'estiu era considerat l'esdeveniment més important de l'any solar en l'antiguitat. El foc era festejat durant aquest dia com a símbol d'abundància, puresa i fertilitat i fins avui en dia el foc i focs d'artifici són dos dels elements centrals en la festa de Sant Joan, il·luminant el cel de Barcelona cada any!
The biggest element of the festival of Sant Joan is fire. The flame to light the fires is called the Flama del Canigó which is taken to different villages every year.
This night there are bonfires everywhere in Barcelona. Old furniture is often used for the bonfire to symbolise a gesture of out with the old - in with the new!
L'element més important d'aquesta festivitat és el foc. La flama que es fa servir per encendre les fogueres s'anomena Flama del Canigó, la qual es portada a diferents poblacions cada any. A aquesta nit hi ha fogueres per tot Barcelona. Mobles vells són emprats sovint per a les fogueres, simbolitzant un gest de fora amb tot el que és vell i benvinguda a tot el que és nou.
There is a strong tradition of fireworks and firecrackers in Catalonia coming from the days of the arab invasions. Each neighbourhood in Barcelona has its own firework display along with local all-night bonfires fuelled by old furniture! In the neighbourhoods you can also find dancing and celebrations in the squares, street parties, music and entertainment.
Hi ha una forta tradició de focs d'artifici i petards a Catalunya provinent dels dies d'invasions àrabs. Cada barri de Barcelona té la seva pròpia exhibició de focs d'artifici junt amb fogueres que duren tota la nit alimentades per mobiliari vell! Als barris també es poden trobar balls i celebracions a les places, festes al carrer, música i entreteniment.
Happy Saint John's Day!!
Feliç dia de Sant Joan!!

THE SUMMER SOLSTICE

2009-06-24T11:45:00.002+02:00

In the UK, 21st June is called The Summer Solstice. Lots of people say that this day is the first day of summer. This day is longer than all the other days in the year because the sun is in the sky fo more hours. The night of 21st June is shorter than all the others nights in the year. On 21st June, lots of people go to Stonehenge to watch the sunrise and to celebrate the start of summer.

Al Regne Unit, el 21 de juny s'anomena solstici d'estiu. Molta gent diu que aquest dia és el primer dia d'estiu. Aquest dia es més llarg que la resta de dies de l'any perquè el sol és al cel durant més hores. La nit del 21 de juny es més curta que la resta de nits de l'any. El 21 de juny, moltes persones van a Stonehenge per contemplar la sortida del sol i per celebrar l'inici de l'estiu.

Today is a very important day in Catalonia. We celebrate our Saint Patron's Day and the World Book Day in a very beautiful way. In Catalonia a rose is traditionally given as a gift for each book sold. You can see all the streets full of books and red roses.

World Book Day was designated (1996) by UNESCO as a worldwide celebration of books and reading, and was marked in over 30 countries around the globe last year. The origins of the day come from Catalonia, where roses and books were given as gifts to loved ones on St. George’s Day – a tradition started some 80 years ago.

HISTORY

23 April: a symbolic date for world literature for on this date and in the same year of 1616, Cervantes, Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega all died.

Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice

Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping

He knows when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good

So be good for goodness sake!

O! You better watch out!

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS (P3-P4-P5)

THE STORY OF JACK O'LANTERN

2008-11-02T23:00:00.003+01:00

Jack, it seems, was a bad man. He kept all his money to himself. He wouldn't help people for all of his life.

Sembla ser que Jack va ser un home molt dolent. Es guardava tots els seus diners per a ell solet i mai en la seva vida no va ajudar ningú .
When Jack died, he wasn't allowed into Heaven because he was such a miser: a person who wouldn't share his money.

Quan en Jack va morir no va se acceptat al cel per ser una persona molt mísera i no voler compartir els seus diners.
It seems that Jack also had played tricks on the Devil, who wouldn't let him into hell, either. Jack was stuck. He had to walk the earth, holding a lantern, until Judgment Day.

Sembla que tampoc va ser acceptat a l'infern perquè també havia enganyat al mateix diable. Així que va ser condemant a vagar per la Terra, sostenint una llanterna, fins al dia del Judici Final.

This is the story that has been told by the Irish people who went to America in the 1800s. They carved their turnips into the face of "Jack-of-the-lantern" to remind themselves what happened to people who were misers. And in the fall, pumpkins are much easier to find than turnips.So that's why Americans today carve their pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns

Aquesta és la història que els irlandesos que van emigrar a Amèrica al 1800 han anat explicant des d'ençà. Ells feien la cara de Jack a un nap per recordar el que li passava a un quan era dolent i míser. A la tardor era molt més fàcil trobar carbasses que naps, així que aquesta és la raó per la qual els americans avui fan la cara de Jack en carbasses.

March 23, 2008
Easter is the sacred celebration of Christ's resurrection from the dead. Easter is nowadays a religious celebration, but Easter was originally a pagan festival.
Today, children hunt colored eggs and place them in Easter baskets along with the modern version of real Easter eggs -- those made of plastic or chocolate candy.
The Easter Bunny is not a modern invention. The symbol originated with the pagan festival of Eastre. The goddess, Eastre, was worshipped by the Anglo-Saxons through her earthly symbol, the rabbit.
From the earliest times, the egg was a symbol of rebirth in most cultures. Eggs were often wrapped in gold leaf or, if you were a peasant, colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of certain flowers. The Germans brought the symbol of the Easter rabbit to America.
