in romania we also have name days, it is saints we celebrate on those days; usually one has to invite his/her friends over for drinks and food, sometimes small presents; my name is IONUT and my name day is on the 7th of january
The Swedish Name Day for "Elizabet" is November 19. In the Orthodox Calendar, it is April 24. In the Catholic Calendar, it is November 5. I should celebrate all of those days, right?
What about the opposite? The name of your birthday has a special meaning to you? And are there special people out there that has the name of their birth day name?
Grattis på namnsdagen! My name day has already passed, October 26th! Who are the illustrations from on your calendar? I recently received one with Elsa Beskow illustrations, one of my favorite Swedish artists! Also, you were really close with the lottery ticket, it's typically just called a "scratch-off." Anyways, Nice video! I'm glad you make Swedish related content because I'm always trying to learn more 😊
Grattis i efterskott! I just realized right then and there that I really didn't know what a 'skraplott' was in English. Such a basic word but I guess they never buy those in the movies xD Indeed, the calender features artwork by Elsa Beskow. She illustrated her children's books. She is one of my favorites but my favorite artist of all time since always is Carl Larsson.
Say It In Swedish Tack, tack! That's true, I can't think of many movies where they do buy them, but you had it! Åhh! I also really like Carl Larsson, both great artists! And I'm pretty keen on Astrid Lindgren and Tove Jansson (and I know she's technically a Swedish speaking Finn, but those moomins!! 😍)
I am not sure if I do or not, all I know is that I am almost a quarter Swedish. Though I recently found this out. But my name is Elizabeth
Latvia also haves a name day
Finland and Latvia also have it.
A lot of countries have it but don't celebrate it even the slightest.
I do have a name day in Sweden, yesterday!
Congratulations! Grattis på namnsdagen i efterskott.

u should; just found out that the romanian orthodox calendar has ~20 st johns
Yes, the Swedish custom derives from the catholic tradition. However, today the Swedish academy maintains the list, disconnected from the church.

And thank you for the video=]
No, name days and birthdays are not related.
I found a place to look up our names. I guess everyone can join in this custom, right?
The more parties, the better!
