2005.12.20(Review of 2000.12.20 edition)
Christmas carols and gift giving; turkey with dressing, “osechi” and “otoso”; the countdown in New York's Times Square and the timeless sound of a temple bell at midnight. These are some of the things that make this season so memorable!
Today's WordMaster is a must for talking on this theme!
