Christmas, pronounced English [? kr? sm? S], beauty [? kr? sm? s]。

Christmas is a festival for Christians to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, which is translated as "Christmas" in Chinese. There is no record of Jesus' birthday in biblical stories, but most Christian churches stipulate December 25th as Christmas Day, while the Orthodox Church stipulates January 6th as Christmas Day.

in old English, the word "Christmas" was originally called "Cristesmaesse", which is equivalent to "Christmas's ass", where mass means festival or feastday, that is, "festival", so Christmas means "festival of Christ".
