Best Answer

It is actually called Shavuot, not Shavout. Mount Sinai, in Israel is the originating location of Shavuot. It celebrates the day, or two days (outside of Israel), when God gave Torah to Moses. Because it originated in Israel, it is celebrated in one day by Jews of Israel, and in two days by Jewish people outside Israel.
