圣诞颂歌英文读后感（八篇）

圣诞节中英文介绍：“圣诞节”这个名称是“基督彌撒”的缩写。The name Christmas is short for "Christ’s Mass".圣诞节是个基督教节日，庆祝耶稣基督诞生。Christmas is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.英文圣诞一词源于古英语，意思是基督的弥撒，或基督的节日。The word Christmas comes from Cristes maesse, an early English phrase that means Mass or festival of Christ.至于频繁使用的圣诞节的简写形式“ Xmas ”，学者们认为也许是始于 13 世纪。Scholars believe the frequently used shortened form of Christmas － Xmas － may have come into use in the 13th century.在希腊语里，“ X ”是“基督”的首字母，同时“ X ”也象征耶稣受难的十字架。In Greek, X is the first letter of Christ's name, and also represents the cross on which Jesus was crucified
