Before kristianity. Girl go sviming at 21.3. An morning they bring a flowering wooden stick bahniatka. As symbol of coming spring. And nowdays they are lezy to go swim so we must do it so they are healtly and beutifle. And they dont bring the fliwering stick as symbol of the spring so we mus vhip thet whit that stick.
Je to predkresťanský sviatok kedysi sa dievčatá sami šli kúpať na rovnodennosť a mali trocha zábavu a ráno doniesli rozkvitnutú hálúzku bahniatka ako znak jari. A kedže sú lenivé a nejdú sa kúpať tak ich okúpeme aby boli zdravé a pekné ( otužovanie) a kedže bahniatka halúzku nedoniesli tak ich ňou vyšibeme.
Glad we have changed most of the Christmas dinner! We always had pierogi that are delicious! Best thing I took from this is that the presents come from Jesus instead of Santa! Blessings to you all !
In peru, we do something similar during carnaval in summer. No whipping involved but throwing water (in buckets) to your family members or community regardless of gender. It can be fun and playful. There isn't something like that in the USA.
And when I thought I finally had found a thing that only Czech culture has this appears. I love the Czech language so so much. Which is why I'm learning it. It's so harsh and unique. And their humor and traditions like this at least I thought were what made them special otherwise than just regarding language. But seemingly, as always, Slovaks have the "better" and somehow same version of the Czech one. It's so frustrating. I think this tradition is amazing. But there's no video like this existing explaining Czech easter traditions or any other interesting ones. It's so hard to find out about Czech culture! Especially the differneces betweet Bohemian, Moravian, Silesian and I know they're very different! All I've said may sound superficial, but I'm trying to find the wild, untamed part of the Czechs. I thought it was Moravian music and dances and that I'd finally found the wild side of Czechia, then I found out all those seemingly Czech songs and dances are actually Slovak, Romanian or Hungarian. Can anyone tell me (I know people here are probably fixated on Slovak culture and music and dances etc, but maybe someone knows nevertheless?), can ANYONE tell me about some Czech things that are unique to them and not influenced by another culture, especially not my own ugly and boring one(I'm German sadly)? Is there beautiful wild, fast music and dances, that are Czech and not Slovak? Or is there another tradition like this, which is only Czech? And where does the Pomláska tradition come from originally? Slovakia or Czechia? Excuse my frustration, I just can't help it this time. But it's a great video and hat's up to you, Slovaks! Much love from Germany <3 PS: I find it amazing, that Slovaks get so much love for this tradition whereas the comments under every Czech video regarding this tradition there's mostly hate. Why?
@@mionellessi3086 I know there has to be more. Czechia is not only beer. If it was like that I could stay in Germany, it's also famous for it's beer. And beer doesn't interest me in the slightest (but I like it). I'm talking about traditions, music, dances etc. There just has to be more. And I hate that the Czechs take so little pride in their own culture. Slovaks are the opposites(my impression), they worship their culture to the fullest. But Czechs seem to just not care about it. WHY?! It could all be so different if they did, then their own unique culture features would be so much more easy to find! And sorry again - I know a Slovak tradition video is not the right place for this but since we've started... Maybe some Slovaks know something about Czechia I can't find out. It's the other way around. Up to now I've only searched for Czech videos. But maybe Slovak ones are just the right place to find out more about Czechia (like a look from "outside" if you know what i mean..)
It's probably a remnant of ancient pagan culture. On our Frisian islands we have rituals quite similar, except they're performed in winter, so no easter eggs, but the type of roleplay between men and women, with women getting slapped for fertility, matches. On our islands these customs have survived, probably because of isolation.
This is rather a tradition, we do it with water only usually and our girlfriends pour us back then as well and we have a nice meal together then. It is quite a fun, but here in Trnava, there is a more popular thing known as Spartakovská šibačka, where we whip the men in light blue colour to their balls and we get scarfs of slovan which we then burn together by the fire in the evening 😂😂😂 great one really, come and try
