El día de los muertos - The Day of the Dead (México))

| en 2:44

En México se celebra el día de muertos, fecha en la que, según la tradición, los difuntos regresan a visitar a sus familias, por lo que se acostumbra ofrecerles un altar y la comida que degustaban en vida. Aunque esta celebración ya se ha mezclado con el halloween porque son fiestas muy cercanas: 30 de octubre, halloween y el 2 de noviembre, día de muertos, de cualquier manera es una fiesta colorida e interesante por las raíces prehispánicas. Por esta época se acostumbra regalar a los amigos calaveras (cráneos) de azúcar con el nombre de la persona; también escribir calaveras que son rimas satíricas en las que la muerte acosa y acecha a la persona hasta que se la lleva, o bien se lleva un chasco.

Los invitamos a escribir "calaveras" para sus amigos o profesores. Recuerden que si bien son caricaturas satíricas, son respetuosas.

“The Day of the Dead” is celebrated in Mexico. On this day, dead people, according to the tradition, come back to life to visit their families. Relatives prepare a shrine and the favorite food of their dead. This celebration has mingled with “Halloween”. This is because they are very close to each other: Halloween on October 31^st. and the Day of the Dead on November 2Our festivity is full of color, and it is also very interesting because of the prehispanic roots. It is the custom that people give sugar skulls with names on their foreheads. They also write “calaveritas”, satirical rhymes. In these, death harasses persons till it takes them with it, or, on the other hand, it is deceived by the people.
