Does the word carol refer to a type of ring dance?

hello everyone from aidans and idsall =P... the answer is No if ur doing the questionaire.. from some1umm dont know...Christmas carols are based on Christian lyrics and relate, in the main, to the Nativity. Christmas carols were introduced in to church services by St Francis of Assisi in the 12th century. As for the word carols, "carol" is a derivative of the French word caroller, the interpretation of which means dancing around in a circle. Carol and carols, eventually came to mean not only to dance but included music and lyrics - hence Christmas Caroling.The joyous themes for many traditional Christmas carols were banned in England by the staunch Protestant Oliver Cromwell and many of the very old Christmas carols and songs were subsequently lost for all time. Christmas carols were only fully popularised again during the Victorian era when they again expressed joyful and merry themes in their carol lyrics as opposed to the normal, more sombre, Christian lyrics found in hymns. As religious observances in the United States and England were closely linked the popularity of Christmas carols grew in both countries in the 19th century. Many Christmas traditions are relatively recent such as Santa Claus and reindeer and bear no relation to Christmas carols. We have reflected this in the unusual and beautiful Victorian Angel Pictures we have included for your pleasure and enjoyment. Today Christmas songs and carols are also fast becoming a tradition.Merry Christmas and enjoy singing the wonderful words and lyrics to the Christmas carols & Christmas songs featured on this Christmas carols and songs website.

How many Christmas carols have the word Joy in them?

It's a safe guess Christmas has the largest repertoire of songs of any Christian holiday. This allows for the fact some Christmas carols are not really Christmas -Oriented ( for example, Jingle Bells, Home for the Holidays, Sleigh Ride) but have become seasonal favorites not played at other times. It's a safe estimate, including borderline Yule songs- there must be at least 300 or 400.

Is Christmas songs is a part of religious songs?

Properly speaking, Christmas CAROLS have a religious bent, such as Silent Night, O Holy Night, Little town of Bethlehem.. there are wholly secular Christmas songs such as White Christmas, the various Santa Claus songs, and well, some that are not even about Christmas but have a wintry themes and are lumped in ( for example Sleigh Ride and Winter Wonderland- neither mentions Christmas in the lyrics! Home for the Holidays may be about Thanksgiving. All of the geographical locations are US, and also Christmas is not implied in the lyrics... still more songs done on the Christmas holiday season than any other Holiday- Impact registered!


What Christmas songs do they sing in India?

Though only about 3% of the population is Christian, India being a former British colony does celebrate some aspects of Christmas. They hold a Christmas festival on the 25th. Christmas songs and carols are sung. Songs like Away in the MAnger, and Angels We Have Heard On High, Hark! The Herald Angel Sing, Joy to the World. I believe due to christian missionaries and their schools, any Christmas song found in a hymnal may be sung in India.
