winter

Traditionally the fourth season in the four seasons, it is generally considered to be in the Southern Hemisphere from December 23 to March 20 or June, from July and August in the continental area of ​​the Northern Hemisphere. This is the lowest time of the sky sun, leading to the lowest temperature of the region's short day and year.

In 1785, William Cowper, "Tirocinium: or commentary on the school". William Cooper's poem collection, volume. II. , C.I. Whittingham Press (1822), p. 174:

Please note that all seasonal names are usually spelled in lowercase letters. This is in sharp contrast to the day of the week and year of the year, which is always spelled with the first letter of capital letters like Thursday or September.

Winter (third person singular winter, present participle winter, simple past and past participle winter)

From primitive germanian * wintruz, Old Frisian Winter, Old High German and Old Saxon wintar, Old Norse vetr and vintr, Gothic ??????? (wintrus). Perhaps it represents a variant of the nose of India India - Europe * Wadnas (UK water, moist); but probably similar to the old English winistre ("left (side)"), the original meaning is the main Direction may be possible "unfavorable" [2]

It is not difficult for me the first winter, but it is still obvious. Approximately 10% of Seattle has experienced severe depression (seasonal affective disorder) in winter, most of which have experienced some symptoms. The high incidence of people here is a matter of arguing about their symptoms and fighting.

There are two types of winter in Chicago: winter with many snow and cold winter. Cold winter occasionally falls below zero (Fahrenheit), but it is usually less than or equal to 20 and less than or equal to 20. As long as you do not wear it you will hear a lot of discussion about the cold, strong winds of winter, where you really feel cold (see below). In the cold winter mainly occurred in January and February, I think that it is the most difficult for the first temperature to fall below freezing.

People in Chicago do not sit in the middle, they play in the cold and accept winter. So, during cold weather (20 F - 40 F), there are a lot of fun things to do in Chicago, but it is not very cold. Go to the Magnificent Mile Festival before the Thanksgiving Day and see if there are more than one million lights on Michigan Avenue. We strongly recommend buying food and drinks in Christkindlmarket in Chicago, Daley Plaza which is the German tradition of the city. Also, Daley Plaza has a big Christmas tree and Science and Industry Museum has another Christmas tree. You can spend a fun day in the city center or watch Christmas decorations at hotels and department stores (in some cases please stop hot chocolate).
