4. From History

Since then 14 February has been the Day of Love,
when people send love letters and presents to each
other. They don’t sing the cards with their names, but
write “Guess Who” or “Your Valentine”.

6. From History

At first this was a European
tradition, but then it became
popular in other countries. It came
to Russia too, but a lot of people
say, “If you love somebody, you
should show it every day, not only
one day a year”.

7.

Cupid is a son of Venus, goddess of love. He could
cause people to fall in love by piercing them with
one of his magic arrows.

8.

The rose was the flower of Venus, the Roman god
of love. Red is a colour that stands for strong
feelings. That is why the red rose is a flower of
love.

9.

A long time ago, people believed that
all the emotions were found in the
heart. In later years, they thought only
the emotion of love was connected with
the heart. The heart is still a symbol of
love, and it is also a symbol of
Valentine’s Day.
