The Fiddler On The Roof - Summary
The Fiddler On The Roof - Summary
First, I thought that I had lost the opportunity to present the homework
about the film, “the fiddler on the roof”, but today in a class a professor told
us that you were (or is) waiting for the homework of people that did not
send you yet. I am sorry I did not know.
Second, I’m going to send you the homework, it does not care if it is
considered or not in the notes, but I would like that you check it and send
me back, to know what are my grammatical mistakes.
- Russian people love dancing, but a curious thing is that they dance man
with another man and woman with another woman (it is not the same
here in Peru).
- Russian people love dancing, and the way they dance is very similar to
ballet.
- When Russian people go to a marriage they have the tradition to give a
present to the married couple, such as: pillows, quilts, animals, etc.
- Here in Peru we have “the tradition” of smiling and greeting when we
meet new people, but Russian people do not, they just greet and smile
with people they know, and not with new people (I noticed in the
movie, but maybe I am wrong)
- They love drinking too much. (vodka)
- They are judies, not everybody but Judaism is one of the 4 principal
religion in Russia (I do not remember the other 3)
- When someone is invited to your home you have to invite him / her tea
with many cookies. (Maybe it is just politeness and not a tradition, I am
not sure.)
- They have a way to kill animals, opening the stomach of the animal with
a knife (I do not exactly the name)
