Origin of Thanksgiving Day Thanksgiving is America"s preeminent day. It is celebrated every year on the fourth Thursday in the month of November. It has a very interesting history. Its origin can be traced back to the 16th century when the first thanksgiving dinner is said to have taken place. Journey of Pilgrims The legendary pilgrims, crossed the Atlantic in the year 1620 in Mayflower-A 17th Century sailing vessel. About 102 people traveled for nearly two months with extreme difficulty. This was so because they were kept in the cargo space of the sailing vessel. No one was allowed to go on the deck due to terrible storms. The pilgrims comforted themselves by singing Psalms- a sacred song.

Arrival in Plymouth The pilgrims reached Plymouth rock on December 11th 1620, after a sea journey of 66 days. Though the original destination was somewhere in the northern part of Virginia, they could not reach the place owing to winds blowing them off course. Nearly46 pilgrims died due to extreme cold in winter. However, in the spring of 1621, Squanto, a native Indian taught the pilgrims to survive by growing food.

There is one day a year in America when all people stay home with their family and eat a big dinner. This is Thanksgiving Day .The Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving day in autumn 1621.

Существует в Америке один день в году, когда все люди остаются дома со своей семьей и кушают большой обед. Это День БЛАГОДАРЕНИЯ. Пилигримы впервые отметили этот праздник осенью 1921г.

They sailed to America from Plymouth, England in September,1620. Their voyage took 3 months. They came to America for religious freedom.

Они приплыли в Америку из г. Плимута, Англии в сентябре 1920г. Их путешествие длилось 3 месяца. Они приехали в Америку за религиозной свободой.

The name of their ship was the Mayflower. They landed in December, 1620. There were more than 1 hundred people.

Их корабль назывался Mayflower. Они вышли на берег в декабре 1620г. Их было более 100 людей.

There were people living in America before the Pilgrims arrived. These people were the Native American Indians. They hunted, fished and farmed to survive.

В Америке до прибытия Пилигримов жили люди. Это были национальные Американские Индейцы. Они занимались охотой, рыболовством и обрабатывали землю, чтобы выжить.

The Pilgrims" first winter was very difficult. They had arrived too late to grow any crops. Without fresh food half of the Pilgrims died.

Первая зима Пилигримов была очень сложной. Они прибыли слишком поздно, чтобы вырастить какой-либо урожай. Без продовольствия половина Пилигримов погибла.

The following spring the Indians taught the Pilgrims how to plant, fish, hunt and survive in America, to grow corn, pumpkins and use cranberries.

Следующей весной Индейцы научили Пилигримов охоте, рыболовству и выживанию в Америке, чтобы вырастить зерно, тыкву и использовать клюкву.

The crops did well and in the fall of 1621 the Pilgrims had a great harvest. They were thankful and decided to celebrate it with a Thanksgiving feast.

Зерно выросло хорошо осенью 1621г. Пилигримы собрали хороший урожай. Они были благодарны и решили отпраздновать Благодарственный пиром.

They prepared a big dinner of turkey, corn, beans and pumpkins. They invited their Indian friends to share this three day feast. The Indians brought their food to the feast, too.

Они приготовили большой обед из индейки, кукурузы, бобов и тыквы. Пригласили туда своих друзей Индейцев принять участие в этом трехдневном пире.

American still celebrate Thanksgiving day in the fall. It is celebrated on the last Thursday of November. Turkey is still the main dish and pumpkin pie and cranberry pie are the most popular desserts.

Американцы до сих пор отмечают День Благодарения. Он отмечается в последний четверг ноября. Индейка все еще главное блюдо на праздничном столе, а тыквенный и клюквенный пироги самые популярные десерты.

American children look forward to spend their Thanksgiving day with their grandparents.

Дети с нетерпением ждут празднования Дня Благодарения со своими бабушками и дедушками.

It reminds us that our food comes from the earth. Indian corn is used as a decoration. People usually go to church in the morning or in the afternoon. Try an old Thanksgiving ritual this year. Start your meal with joyful noise of Thanksgiving. All people give thanks for the good things that they have.

Это напоминает нам то, что нашу еду дает нам земля. На этот праздник люди обычно ходят в церковь утром или днем. Они благодарна за все хорошее, что они имеют.

Thanksgiving day is associated with certain symbols and foods. Turkey is a part of the traditional Thanksgiving dinner, as well as pumpkin pie and cranberries. The Horn of Plenty is a familiar Thanksgiving symbol.

День благодарения связан с определенными символами и продуктами. Индейка - часть традиционного обеда Дня благодарения, так же как тыквенный пирог и клюква. Рог изобилия - знакомый символ Дня благодарения

С этого дня начинается праздничный сезон, который включает в себя Рождество и продолжается до Нового года. День благодарения (англ.

История День благодарения изначально был праздником выражения благодарности и признательности Богу, а равно семье и друзьям за материальное благосостояние и доброе отношение. В традиционном смысле (присущем земледельческим культурам начиная с древнейших времен), такой праздник на исходе осени означал благодарение небесам за богатый урожай и за изобилие плодов. С тех пор в США и Канаде этот праздник в значительной степени утратил свои религиозные корни и стал гражданским, общепринятым и общенародным.

Традиции празднования По старинной традиции несколько поколений одной семьи собирается в доме старших на праздничный обед. Каждый произносит слова благодарения за всё то хорошее, что произошло в его жизни. Едят в этот день современные американцы то же самое, что ели их предки в далёком 1621 г. на первом обеде в честь Дня благодарения.

Многие блюда стали не только традицией, но и своего рода символами праздника: фаршированная индейка с клюквенным сиропом и большой сладкий тыквенный пирог. Яркие молодые тыквы, початки «индейской» кукурузы, яблоки, апельсины, каштаны, орехи, сухие листья и гроздья винограда, свисающие с блюда словно из рога изобилия, не только служат традиционным украшением стола, но и олицетворяют обилие осенних даров природы. Букеты золотых, оранжевых и красно- коричневых хризантем, дополненные веточками с ягодами, довершают ощущение изобилия и щедрости природы, настоящего праздника богатого урожая.
