Ever wondered why we say ‘Christmas’ instead of ‘Yuletide’ or just ‘the holidays’? Turns out, ‘Christmas’ literally means ‘Christ’s Mass’—a church service celebrating Jesus’s birth. The word mashed together over centuries, pushing out the older, more pagan ‘Yule’ as Christianity took over in England. So next time you hear ‘Merry Christmas,’ you’re actually referencing a medieval church service! #Culture #ChristmasHistory #FunFacts
