Trying to keep a fitness resolution this year? In Japan, it turns out how we talk about our goals — and who we share them with — can help. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/01/02/language/japanese-new-years-resolutions/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #language #nihongo #vocabulary #newyears #oshogatsu

We have weird traditions in #Denmark, especially around Christmas and #NewYears. One is watching the 1963 black/white comedy Dinner for One right up till midnight on New Years eve. It's such a cute story, and a lot of Danes know it by heart. Why we watch it, or how it started, I don't know.

To everyone, and before the festivities start (depending on where you are of course), wishing you and yours a Happy New Year! 🎆 🧨 🎇 🥂 🍻 🌠
(the flower is from one of my many photographs, the rest is "gnome fillers" 😊)

Working on my #newyears playlist…I like unusual covers, every genre possible, unlikely but fitting choices. Any ideas: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/new-years-mix/pl.u-N6Jpt0peEK

Many people recognize this composition
For example it's known as a #Christmas carol, "Carol of the Bells" in the USA
But the original title is " #Shchedryk"
Composed in #Ukraine by Mykola Leontovych about 110 years ago
The original lyrics tell a story of a swallow flying into a household at #NewYears. To sing of the wealth that will come in Springtime
Here it is symbolically performed in the machine hall of a thermal power plant destroyed by Russian strikes
