boxing day اليوم التالي ليوم الميلاد Explanation: "boxing day" يوم 26 ديسمبر، اليوم التالي ليوم الميلاد "There is much dispute over the true origins of Boxing Day, but one common story of the holiday's origins is that servants used to receive Christmas gifts from their employers on the first weekday after Christmas, the day after the family celebrations. These were generally called their Christmas boxes. Another story is that this is the day that priests broke open the collection boxes and distributed the money to the poor." http://www.answers.com/boxing day&r=67 |
