2. Winter is a very beautiful time in the year.
It's a time when all nature is white.

3. “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]

4. 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]

5. Denmark (Danish). Copenhagen. Vinter.

6. England (English). Winter.

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. Winter is the best time of the year.

10. Thank you for your attention.
