Educational events and entertainment organized by Marta Rudenko\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Oksana Mysyk<\/strong>, Associate Professors of the Department of the Ukrainian Language and\u00a0Olha Khrystenko<\/strong>, Associate Professor of the Department of Higher Education Pedagogy and Social Sciences, founders of the Ukrainian Club of TNMU, help foreign students from different countries to integrate into Ukrainian society. This time the theme of Christmas and Ukrainian traditions was chosen for the meeting.<\/p>\n

The students were told about sowing \u2013 one of the main rites during the celebration of the Old New Year, which Ukrainians celebrate on the night of January 13-14.\u00a0Devarajula Mariappan<\/strong>\u00a0tried himself as a sower and sowed the house with grain that symbolizes fertility and prosperity.<\/p>\n

During the theatre performance with Ukrainian proverbs, the students were told about the women\u2019s holiday of Catherine (December 7). On that day the girls foretold fate and the groom, inviting the convict to dinner, divinated on cherry twigs, went to the well to look at his reflection, threw boots over gate, burned the thread of fate. On St. Andrew\u2019s Day (December 13), the boys organized a competition for a piece of kalyta \u2013 a ritual cake that symbolizes prosperity. The fun is that the round cake is tied with a ribbon to a stick, and the young guys are trying to bite off a piece. Our students, who gladly took part in the entertainments offered, also wanted to know their destiny.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to our Ukrainian club and wonderful teachers for such an interesting and informative evening that helps us better understand the Ukrainian people,\u201d said\u00a0Sania Salish<\/strong>, a student of the Faculty of Medicine.<\/p>\n

The students were treated with pancakes, which were a symbol of the spring sun, which conquers winter for our ancestors.<\/p>\n

We show gratitude to\u00a0Oksana Hulyk, Andrii Lesitskyi, Viktoria Bezbakh, Oleh Havryliuk and Vira Shumska<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 excellent specialists of the Ternopil Regional Museum of Local Lore for such a rich, interesting program about Ukrainian Christmas traditions, unforgettable emotions and a tour around the museum, and\u00a0Yarema Shatarskyi<\/strong>, the director of the institution, for his assistance in preparation this event.<\/p>\n
