Language Expert, Sylvia Johnson from Preply said: “The rich tapestry of Christmas-themed language reflects the holiday’s diverse and enduring history.
“Words like ‘bauble’ trace back to German and Old English origins, reflecting the widespread influence of these languages on Christmas celebrations. “For example, ‘tinsel’ comes from the Old French word ‘estinceler,’ meaning ‘to sparkle’.
“Its association with shiny decorations mirrors the festive illumination that transforms homes and cities during the Christmas season.“Similarly, the term ‘yuletide’ goes back to the ancient Norse celebration of Yule, highlighting the blending of pagan and Christian customs that shaped the holiday we know and love today.”
