What are you talking about? Is this some sort of foreign holiday, or are you talking about a literal carnival?


Carnaval? - Krillin - 02-23-2006

Nah, it's cool. I learned something today. =D

In Mobile AL, we are having Mardi Gras which is known as Canival in Brazil so it might have something close to the origins of what you have 19.

No dress up...just parades and alot of free beads and moonpies.

I'm still dressing up. Even if I live in Canada, it sounds like fun.


Carnaval? - Hellfighter 17 - 02-23-2006

We have that in Saskatchewan.

We also like to think we have culture.

In Slovenia, we also have a holiday on which people dress up into costumes. But the kids do go from door to door for candy and money.

Sounds like Haloween to me......>>

Its not Halloween. Halloween isnt even a Slavic holiday. But the market did incorporate it here for extra profit. -.-

In any case, its more similar to the German (Or Dutch since it seems preety much the same) Carnavel.

Yes but its related to scaring away evil spirits and what not. I think the meaning of this holiday is to scare away winter (-.-) and celebrate the beggining of spring.

Nice costume, mate. I can already hear James Earl Jones voice. Big Grin

Yeah, what he said. ^_^ Nice, dude!

It's similar to Halloween.

Although its older, and has a very different background.

Carnaval is everyone acting weird and crazy for fun because of the spring.

Halloween is banishing bad spirits by dressing like them.
