English vocabulary about Halloween

VnExpressVnExpress31/10/2023


Every time Halloween comes, native speakers often say "it's spooky season".

On this holiday, people often dress up as scary characters such as vampires, ghosts, mummies or witches. Movie and comic book characters are also popular, such as fairies or superheroes.

Dressing up is called "dress up": My son loves to dress up as a ghost, while his sister likes to be a fairy. Costumes like the above are called "costumes".

In addition to this word, the word "cosplay" also means to dress up, and is used directly by many young people instead of the Vietnamese meaning: The models cosplay as all kinds of movie characters for this year Halloween's party.

A common tradition during this holiday is trick-or-treating. Children dress up in costumes and go to neighboring homes to ask for candy. When the homeowner opens the door, the children shout, “trick or treat!” In this phrase, “trick” means trick or trickery, and “treat” means a snack, usually something sweet.

To celebrate Halloween, companies and families often use pumpkins for decoration. Pumpkins are carved into scary shapes and used as the shell of lanterns. In English, lanterns are "lanterns", and lanterns made from pumpkins for Halloween are called "Jack-o'-lanterns".

In addition, amusement parks can be decorated in the style of a haunted house, in English "haunted house".
