Best Answer

'Christmas flower' or 'Flower of Christmas' may be literal English equivalents of 'flor-do-natal' [Euphorbiaspp]. Another equivalent may be the former scientific name, 'poinsettia'.

The feminine noun 'flor' means 'flower'. Its singular definite article is 'a' ['the'], and its singular indefinite 'uma' [a', one']. The word 'do' combines the preposition 'de' and the masculine singular definite article 'o' to mean 'of, from the'. The masculine noun 'natal' means 'Nativity, Christmas'.

All together, they're pronounced 'floh doo nuh-TOW'.*

*The sound 'ow' is similar to sound in the English exclamation of pain, 'ow'.
