Happy Valentine´s Day!

How many of you celebrate this meant-to-be-romantic holiday? How do you celebrate it?

Here's a video that explains some V-Day traditions from all around the world, but do you agree that people actually celebrate in these traditional ways? Watch the video and answer the following questions:

  • Which countries does the video mention?
  • Name the country which, according to the video, practices the following tradition:
    • a. Exchanges candy.                                               
    • b. Sends snowdrop flowers.                                    
    • c. Visits a temple.
    • d. Sends beautiful bouquets of roses to wives.
    • e. Gives chocolate as a gift.                                      
  • Which two countries celebrate Valentine's twice and what are the two dates that they celebrate it on?

Now take a look at this "Bet you didn't know" video from the History Channel about the holiday and answer the comprehension questions.
