Did you know?
- In Hebrew, there is no native ancient equivalent for 'carol' because the tradition of singing specific songs for December 25 is not indigenous to the land.
- Because Christmas is not a native holiday in Israel, קרול is almost exclusively associated with foreign traditions or the Christian minority.
- Because קרול is a transliterated word, it does not have a 'verb' form in Hebrew. To say 'to carol', one must use a phrase like לשיר קרול (to sing a carol).
