My favourite word: Winter

Winter is a very beautiful time in the year. It's a time when all nature is white.
“Winter is the season after autumn and before spring when it is usually cold: a cold/severe/hard winter; a mild winter; a cold winter’s night; We usually go skiing in winter; This town is deserted in winter; She wore a hairy winter coat”. [1]
Let’s compare the word “winter” in different languages. It has a very similar to English spelling in the Danish language - it is “vinter”. The same spelling this word has in the Swedish and Norwegian languages – “vinter”. I think there are many languages in which the word winter is spelt similarly but there are many other languages in which this word differs. For example: in Latin- hiems; in Belarusian- зiма and many others. [2]
Denmark (Danish). Copenhagen. Vinter.
England (English). Winter.
In winter bullfinches and many other birds fly to our country. Some animals sleep when it’s cold. Many animals change fur before winter , for example squirre s do it in order not get cold, hares - to hide from dangers animals.
I like winter. We can play snowballs, sledge, ski and skate. We celebrate many holidays: the New Year, Christmas, 23 February and I celebrate my birthday in winter.
Winter is the best time of the year.
Thank you for your attention.
