Puzzle Contest #70 with Lizzy Cseh

LSI ------------------------n

Magyar Easter Traditions

Kellemes Húsvéti Ünnepeket! Happy Easter!

Lizzy Check here. This month we celebrate Easter, and this year Easter falls on April 24. According to the Gregorian calendar, the latest date on which this glorious celebration of rebirth can fall is April 2 7. And it just so happens that both Roman and Eastern Rite Christians will celebrate the rebirth of Christ on the exact same day this year.

This month’s Wordsearch will include Easter-themed words in both Hungarian and English. There are 16 words to find.

As Tibor eluded to in his column (Page 8), Easter is a time for celebration of family, food and traditions. I learned about a rather obscure but, nonetheless, interesting Magyar Easter tradition from the area surrounding the town of Mohács. The “Busójárás” (walk of the buso monsters) is where men of the villages go door to door wearing devil masks. The appearance of the monsters definitely puts a fright into the area’s younger children.

Good luck with the puzzle!
