Thank you very much for an interesting article about Hunukkah. As we have very little to do with Jewish holidays here in Japan, we just don’t know anything about them. To tell the truth, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of this religious celebration in my life. The artcle reminds me afresh of the necessity of learning a lot more about the Jewish people and all the other related things–more in detail. In additon to French, I can also learn from you so many other different things connected with the language, too! Words fail to express my thanks properly. All I can say is “Thank you, Laura-san”.

Merci Laura de publier cet article annuel sur cette fête juive. Comme je vous lis depuis longtemps, j’apprécie toujours que vous partagiez cet article avec vos lectures juifs ainsi que ne le sont pas. Quant à moi, j’aime revoir ce vocabulaire qui m’aide à parler plus facilement sur ma fête en français. Meilleurs voeux et bonne année!
Great post! Excellent opportunity to learn more about this interesting holiday.
