Mit ünneplünk pünkösdkor?

Dezsényi I. - Salánki Á. — Sun, 24 May 2026 19:00:56 +0000

Pentecost is one of the Christian feasts, celebrated on the fiftieth day after Easter Sunday. It commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus.

Pentecost is also called Whitsun, Whitsunday, or Whit Sunday in the United Kingdom and other English-speaking areas.

For most Christians, Pentecost represents the birthday of the Church, signified by the descent of the Holy Spirit.

The events took place on the day of the Pentecost, in Jerusalem, at 09:00 (“the third hour of the day,” according to Jewish timekeeping). The community of Christ’s disciples, approximately 120 people, was gathered “into an upper room” in a building that Tradition locates on Mount Zion. The Tradition also says that it was the same room where Jesus ate His Last Supper. The events are very well described in Acts 2:1-4:

“And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”

According to the Book of Acts, the experience of the Pentecost was noticed by all in the large crowd, causing confusion and inspiring awe:

“When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language…. Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? …Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”” Acts 2:6-12

Then the Apostle Peter, standing with the eleven other apostles, spoke to the crowd. He explained that these strange events had been predicted by the prophet Joel, and that Jesus’ resurrection from the dead and exaltation to heaven had been prophesied by David. Peter then exhorted his listeners to turn to Christ. When Peter was asked what people should do, he responded by saying “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” The Bible suggests that about three thousand responded to Peter’s sermon.

Customs for celebrating Pentecost

In Italy, it was customary to scatter rose petals from the ceiling of the churches to recall the miracle of the fiery tongues. The Italian name Pascha rossa comes from the red colors of the vestments used on Pentecost.

In France, it was customary to blow trumpets during Divine service, to recall the sound of the mighty wind that accompanied the Descent of the Holy Spirit.

In the United Kingdom, the gentry amused themselves with horse races. Whitsunday remains one of the Scottish term days, at which debts are paid and leases traditionally expire, but this Scottish Whitsunday is now always considered to fall on May 15.

In Poland, Pentecost is called “the Green Holiday,” when people decorate their houses with green branches, which—according to tradition—are said to bring God’s blessing upon the home and the people living in it. Another custom, which is slowly becoming rare, is making processions to the fields, where the crops are blessed.

In Ukraine, Pentecost is called “Green Sunday.” The inside of churches are covered with fresh branches of green deciduous trees. Green branches are also placed on the outside banisters and doors of churches and people also place a green branch on the door of their homes. Clergy and altar boys also wear green vestments as do many in the congregation. Green symbolizes new life and Pentecost is thought to be the birthday of the church.

The following Monday is a holiday in much of Europe. The day is known as Whit Monday in England, Wales, and Ireland, and is also celebrated in Iceland, Norway, Denmark, The Netherlands, Poland, Belgium, parts of Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Hungary.

Date of Pentecost

Pentecost does not fall on the same calendar date every year, yet according to Church tradition, Pentecost is always seven weeks after Easter Sunday; that is to say, 50 days after Easter (inclusive of Easter Day). Said otherwise, it falls on the eighth Sunday, counting Easter Day.

The earliest possible date is May 10, and latest possible date is June 13.

10 KUTYÁS ÉRDEKESSÉG ANGOLUL

Szalai Nóri — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 15:32:32 +0000

Despite how much time we spend with them, our dogs’ lives are still largely a mystery to us. What do they think? What do they feel? How much of what we say do they understand? While many of these questions are still the subject of study, some of them can be answered. In this list there are ten incredible dog facts you didn’t know, both about our furry friends and their history on this Earth.

Their Sense of Smell is Fantastic; Their Taste? Not So Much.

Anybody can tell by observing their furry friend that they have a much closer relationship to smell than we do. But just how much more refined is this ability? Dogs have 300 million olfactory receptors in their noses, while humans possess a humbling 6 million. Their sense of smell is so refined that they can detect substances at the density of one drop of liquid distributed within 20 Olympic-size swimming pools. However, we win in the taste department, coming in at having a whopping 9,000 taste buds compared to our furry friends’ 1,700.

Dogs Get Jealous – Even In Their Own Imagination

A study from the University of Auckland has recently revealed that not only do dogs get jealous of their owners, they even have the ability to get jealous in scenarios they imagine between their owner and another dog.

Dogs Can See (Some) Color

A commonly held belief among people today is that dogs can only see in shades of gray, but this is not the case. While dogs are unable to differentiate between shades of red and green, seeing both instead as shades of gray, they have the full ability to see shades of yellows and blues. It is actually recommended that you use a blue ball when playing in a grassy field with your canine companion to help them differentiate between the ball and the grass.

Petting Dogs Lowers Your Blood Pressure

Recent studies published in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine show that not only is petting a dog pleasant emotionally, but it also has positive physical effects. Participants in the study had decreased blood pressure and heart rates when interacting with dogs, especially when cuddling with and petting these furry fellows. Next time you feel that blood pressure rising, seek out your kind companion.

They Enjoy Music (Especially Classical)

Have you ever been listening to one of your favorite songs and stopped to wonder if little Fido was enjoying it, too? Well, now you can rest assured that he likely is. According to a study in the Journal of Veterinary Behavior, dogs in a kennel environment who were played classical music showed decreased anxiety and increased relaxation. Further studies showed that dogs seem to prefer music that is between 50-60 BPM, so if you’re making the perfect playlist for your pup pal, stick to the slower songs.

They Can Navigate Subway Systems

Dogs in Moscow have been observed using the metro stations not just as shelter — but to navigate the city. Stray dogs will regularly take the subway to stops to find food, visit people, and sometimes just for fun.

In Ancient Rome, Dogs Wore Armor

While now we dress our furry friends in sweaters and booties, in Ancient Rome, it was a different story. Roman War Dogs were often suited up in plate metal armor and spiked collars and sent to fight alongside their human compatriots. The use of war dogs was not exclusive to Rome — many ancient civilizations, such as Assyria, Greece, and Sumer, used hounds of war as well.

Dogs Are as Smart as a 2-Year-Old Child

While every breed of dog is different, studies have shown that overall, dogs possess roughly the same level of cognition as a 2-year-old child. Factors looked at while completing this study included spatial awareness, ability to understand language, and ability to understand basic math and numbers. Keep this in mind when interacting with your dog — they may know more than you think.

The Oldest Dog Breed In The World Has Existed Since 329 B.C.

The oldest known breed of domesticated dog, the Saluki, has existed since at least 329 B.C., with evidence that it existed as long ago as 2100 B.C. Salukis were kept by nearly every civilization in the ancient Middle East, including Egypt, Persia, and many of the nomadic Arab groups. However, their introduction to the English-speaking world is rather recent, with the first Saluki being brought into England as recently as the 1840s.

With how commonly we see dogs on a day-to-day basis, it’s easy to forget how amazing and wonderful our furry friends really are. Next time you’re hanging out with your pet pup, think about his war dog ancestors and his cousin in Moscow riding the subway to visit with friends, and give him a proud pat on the back for the fantastic creature that he is.

Dogs Have a Sense of Time.

If you’re a dog owner, you probably noticed your canine friend starting to feel impatient when it’s getting close to their mealtime. Dogs have an internal mechanism, called circadian rhythm, that helps them tell the time; such that they know when they’re supposed to receive their food or when their owners are about to arrive home, even if their routine is disrupted.

Felszólítás és tiltás angolul

Szalai Nóri — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 08:31:35 +0000

FELSZÓLÍTÁS ÉS TILTÁS – IMPERATIVES

Az angolban ez az egyik legegyszerűbb dolog! Nem kell hozzá semmi trükköt, és szerkezetet megtanulni! Egyszerűen használd csak az igét, nem kell hozzá még az alany sem:

Learn English! – Tanulj angolul!
Go home! – Menj haza!
Take the dog for a walk! – Vidd le a kutyát sétálni!/
Drink some water! – Igyál egy kis vizet!
Bring back my socks! – to a dog : ) – Hozd vissza a zoknim!

A felszólító mód használatát a különböző szituációkban szoktuk általában használni:

1) valakinek megparancsolunk valamit, valakit utasítunk valamire (order or command):
Do your homework now! – Most azonnal csináld meg a házi feladatod!

2) felszólítunk valakit valamire, felajánlunk valakinek valamit (offers):
Help yourself to the spaghetti! – Szolgáld ki magad a spagettivel!/Szedj magadnak spagettit!

3) felhívunk valakit valamire, meghívunk valakit (invitations):
Come over and watch the match with us! – Gyere ár, és nézde vekünk a meccset!

4) (jó)kívánságot adunk át, instrukciót közlünk (suggestions, instructions):
Have fun! – Érezd jól magad!

5) útbaigazítást adunk (giving directions):
Go straight ahead and turn left at the corner! – Menj egyenesen előre, majd fordulj balra a sarkon!

Ha tiltani akarsz, tehát megkérsz valakit, hogy NE csináljon valamit, akkor azt a következő szerkezettel teheted: DON’T’ + ige első alakja

Például (az első példákkal élve):

Don’t learn English! – Ne tanulj angolul!
Don’t go home! – Ne menj haza!
Don’t take the dog for a walk! – Ne vidd le a kutyát sétálni!
Don’t drink water! – Ne igyál vizet!
Don’t bring back my socks! – Ne hozd vissza a zoknim!

Ha szeretnéd a tiltást egy kicsit udvariasabbá tenni, akkor a mondat végére vagy elejére egyszerűen tedd oda a ’please’ szócskát (kivéve akkor, amikor felkínálsz valamit, meghívsz valakit, vagy instrukciókat adsz). Ha a mondat végére teszed a ’please’ szót, akkor kell elé egy vessző!

Please close the door! – Kérlek, csukd be az ajtót!
Close the door, please! – Csukd be az ajtót, kérlek!

10 Fun Facts About Easter

While you count down the hours until the Easter Bunny drops off your candy, check out these 10 uncommon facts about the holiday.

“I am really special.” [Bunny]
“What are you doing?” [Man]
“See” [Bunny]

Easter is coming, and, if you’re like many people around the US, you’re anxiously anticipating the arrival of the Easter Bunny – and several pounds of chocolate and candy.

While you count down the hours, check out these 10 uncommon facts about the holiday.

Number 10. Most Americans agree on how to eat a chocolate bunny. 76 percent say the proper way to do it is ears first.

Number 9. Some world traditions are incredibly elaborate. In Guatemala, for example, carpets stretching up to a mile-long are made from flowers and sawdust during the weeks before Easter. On the day of the holiday, people walk on it on their way to church.

Number 8. There’s an Easter egg worth over 8 million dollars. Described as a cross between a Faberge and the Damien Hirst skull, the ornament is covered with over a thousand diamonds. Nested inside is a gold egg with a rock crystal dove inside that.

Number 7. The Easter Bunny has a mysterious past. Details of its emergence as a symbol of the holiday are sketchy, but according to history.com, it traveled to America with the Germans in the 1700’s. The country has long told stories about an egg-laying hare.

“We’d like to apologize for the Easter Bunny.”

Number 6. The holiday brings out some people’s inner jokester. Perhaps giddy because it’s springtime, manufacturers make all sorts of goofy merchandise for Easter. Notable among the stuff is a card that features terrified eggs, a dish of colored liquid, and the caption ‘Where Eggs Come To Dye‘.

Number 5. Egg decorating goes back hundreds of years. History.com says that the tradition dates back to the 13th century. At the time, eggs were a mandatory Lenten sacrifice, so in preparation for the day they could once again be enjoyed, people made them extra special by embellishing them.

Number 4. In Australia they have an Easter Bilby instead of a bunny. Well, at least some people are trying to make that the case.

“Bilbys can be found only in Australia. They are endemic to this country. There’s nothing like them anywhere else in the world.” [ABC Radio Australia]

Number 3. The annual White House Easter Egg Roll used to be held at the U.S. Capitol. Concerns for the preservation of the terraced lawn led to the signing of a bill that outlawed the use of the location.

Number 2. A seriously large amount of candy is sold for the holiday. Annually, about 2 billion dollars worth of sweet stuff ends up in the hands, baskets, and stomachs of American consumers.

Number 1. The largest egg hunt in history was held at Cypress Gardens in 2007. The Florida theme park hid over half a million eggs. Nearly 10 thousand children and their parents scoured the grounds looking for them.
