It's January 21st and it's Hugging Day It's January 21st and it's Hugging Day

21 січня. Міжнародний день обіймів

Вважається, що слово «обіймати» походить від слова «hugga», що в давньоскандинавській мові означає «втішати». Зараз ми навіть не замислюємося про те, що публічні обійми колись вважалися непристойним. Ми обіймаємося, щоб привітати друзів і рідних або попрощатися. Обіймайтеся частіше та даруйте приємні емоції один одному.

Слово дня: “ОБІЙНЯТИ” -  обхоплювати кого-небудь руками чи рукою, виражаючи ніжність, почуття дружби.

Дуже хочеться обійняти батьків.

The word of the day: hugger-mugger (noun) /ˌhʌɡərˈmʌɡər/

Meaning:a secret or clandestine behavior; not directly related to physical hugging; a place or situation that is confused or untidy and lacks order.

Example:The office gossip was filled with hugger-mugger about upcoming changes.
