Spain’s celebrations vary greatly depending on the region. In the Basque regions, the Santa role is filled by Olentzero, a fat man in a beret who smokes a pipe. He used to be an enforcer against naughty children who was said to throw a sickle down the chimney to cut the throats of kids who didn’t sleep. Nowadays though, he is a positive character like Santa that only brings good presents.
西班牙的慶祝風(fēng)俗不同地區(qū)大不相同。在斯巴達(dá)地區(qū)，圣誕老人名叫奧林澤羅（Olentzero），是一個(gè)戴著四角帽、抽著大煙斗的胖老人。他過去的職責(zé)是懲罰淘氣包，據(jù)說他會(huì)從煙囪里扔下鐮刀，切斷不睡覺的小孩的喉嚨。但如今，他是像圣誕老人那樣只帶來好禮物的正面形象。
In the Catalan region, families “feed” a little log called a “Caga tio” every night from the 8th to the 23rd. On Christmas Eve, the family hits the log with a stick to release sweet treats that have been hidden in his hollow center. If you hadn’t guessed yet, “Caga tio” translates to “pooping log.”
在加泰羅尼亞地區(qū)，人們會(huì)從12月8號(hào)到23號(hào)一直“喂食”一塊叫“察加蒂奧”（Caga tio）的原木。在平安夜，他們會(huì)用棍子敲這塊原木，讓藏在中空的木頭中的糖果掉出來。如果你還未猜出“察加蒂奧”什么意思，它字面翻譯就是“排便原木”。
The celebration ends when the log poops out something decidedly not sweet, usually a dried herring, an onion or a head of garlic. Catalans must enjoy poop jokes because aside from their pooping log, they also celebrate with a “Caganer,” a nativity scene character that is seen to be pooping in the corner of the scene.
慶祝活動(dòng)的結(jié)尾就是“原木‘排’出不甜的東西，往往是干鯡魚、洋蔥或蒜頭”。加泰羅尼亞人一定很享受“大便”笑話，因?yàn)槌恕芭疟阍尽?他們還慶祝一個(gè)基督誕生場(chǎng)景中的人物（Caganer），據(jù)說他被看到在場(chǎng)景的一角拉大便。
