Período que representa a ressurreição de Jesus Cristo para os católicos, é o dia santo mais importante da religião cristã, quando as pessoas vão às igrejas e participam de cerimônias religiosas. A Páscoa está incluída na Semana Santa, período que comemora paixão, morte e ressurreição de Cristo. Durante principalmente a Sexta-feira de Paixão e o domingo de Páscoa são realizadas procissões, missas, rituais, peças de teatro, e muitas outras manifestações feitas em todas as cidades. Durante essa semana, segundo a tradição católica não se pode consumir nenhum tipo de carne vermelha. É por isso que se preparam muitos pratos com peixe nessa época. Um dos peixes mais tradicionais usado nesse período é o bacalhau, influência dos portugueses no Brasil. Além de uma data religiosa, é também um dia lúdico para as crianças. Durante a Páscoa, as crianças montam ninhos para os coelhos da Páscoa e esperam ansiosamente sua chegada com um ovo de chocolate de presente. Na manhã de Páscoa, os ninhos estão cheios de ovos de chocolate. Ou então se realiza uma caçada aos ovos, podendo ser ovos de chocolate ou ovos pintados à mão. O coelho simboliza o nascimento, a existência da vida, porque ele é capaz de gerar grandes ninhadas. Nos mercados brasileiros, logo após o fim do carnaval, já são montados os caminhos de ovos de chocolate. São corredores lotados de ovos de Páscoa, formando verdadeiras "parreiras" de ovos de Páscoa. Existem de vários sabores, alguns recheados ou trufados, e os ovos próprios para crianças, com personagens de desenhos animados ou de filmes, sempre vêm com um brinquedo surpresa especial dentro da embalagem. ----Formal English---- Easter Forty days after the Carnival celebrations, arrives the sweetest time of the year in Brazil - Easter. The period that represents the resurrection of Jesus Christ for Catholics, it is the most important holy day of Christianity when people go to church and participate in religious ceremonies. Easter is included in the Holy Week, a period that commemorates the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ. Especially during the Friday of Passion and Sunday of Easter, we hold processions, masses, rituals, theater, and many other events celebrated in all the cities. During this week, according to the Catholic tradition, we forbid the consuming of any red meat. That's why people prepare many dishes using fish during this season. One of the most traditional fishes used in this period is the codfish; it is an influence of Portuguese people in Brazil. In addition to a religious day, it is also a day of play for children. During Easter, children make nests for Easter bunnies and anxiously await their arrival with a chocolate egg as a gift. On Easter morning, the nests are full of chocolate eggs - or maybe an egg hunt, that may have chocolate eggs or hand-painted eggs. The rabbit symbolizes the birth, the existence of life, because it is able to generate huge litters. In the Brazilian markets, after the end of the carnival, they already start to set up roads of chocolate eggs. Easter eggs fill corridors, forming true "grapevines" of Easter eggs. There are several flavors, some filled or truffles, and eggs for kids, with cartoon characters or movies, always with a special toy surprise in the package. --------------------------- Learn Portuguese with PortuguesePod101!

O coelho simboliza o nascimento, a existência da vida, porque ele é capaz de gerar grandes ninhadas. Nos mercados brasileiros, logo após o fim do carnaval, já são montados os caminhos de ovos de chocolate. São corredores lotados de ovos de Páscoa, formando verdadeiras "parreiras" de ovos de Páscoa. Existem de vários sabores, alguns recheados ou trufados, e os ovos próprios para crianças, com personagens de desenhos animados ou de filmes, sempre vêm com um brinquedo surpresa especial dentro da embalagem. ----Formal English---- Easter Forty days after the Carnival celebrations, arrives the sweetest time of the year in Brazil - Easter. The period that represents the resurrection of Jesus Christ for Catholics, it is the most important holy day of Christianity when people go to church and participate in religious ceremonies. Easter is included in the Holy Week, a period that commemorates the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ. Especially during the Friday of Passion and Sunday of Easter, we hold processions, masses, rituals, theater, and many other events celebrated in all the cities. During this week, according to the Catholic tradition, we forbid the consuming of any red meat. That's why people prepare many dishes using fish during this season. One of the most traditional fishes used in this period is the codfish; it is an influence of Portuguese people in Brazil. In addition to a religious day, it is also a day of play for children. During Easter, children make nests for Easter bunnies and anxiously await their arrival with a chocolate egg as a gift. On Easter morning, the nests are full of chocolate eggs - or maybe an egg hunt, that may have chocolate eggs or hand-painted eggs. The rabbit symbolizes the birth, the existence of life, because it is able to generate huge litters. In the Brazilian markets, after the end of the carnival, they already start to set up roads of chocolate eggs. Easter eggs fill corridors, forming true "grapevines" of Easter eggs. There are several flavors, some filled or truffles, and eggs for kids, with cartoon characters or movies, always with a special toy surprise in the package. --------------------------- Stop by PortuguesePod101.com for the Fastest, Easiest and Most Fun Way to Learn Portuguese!
