Winter Lanterns

I’m always amazed finding out how some, obvious for one, things may have absolutely different associations for people from another part of the world, speaking another language.

For example, bullfinches. In Russia this bird’s called [snegir’], where [sneg] means snow. Meanwhile, in China, it’s not a finch but a sparrow, ash-sparrow (灰雀) in fact.
