The Official Scrabble Dictionary allows both caroler and caroller. Similar words with the same vowel consonant pattern like bevel, jewel, label, level, libel, model, ravel, revel and yodel, all were spelled both ways. That is with a single and a double L. In the dictionary the double L is more commonly used by the British, while the US standard is more often with a single L. However, both are allowed and seem interchangeable. If you go by what we see in print and take the word model as an example, you would most often see modeling not modelling. Thus, I think a modeler and caroler rather than modeller and caroller would be the more correct US way of spelling with this particular consonant, vowel, consonant, vowel, consonant format.
This is actually two separate terms. The word "outcry" means a general complaint from the public, while "far cry" is an idiom meaning something of a very different nature or magnitude (i.e. distant) from another.Example:There was a great outcry over the increase in property taxes.Examples:Locking a student in the closet is a far cry from maintaining classroom discipline.The Christmas celebration at the mall is a far cry from caroling around the town.The weather in San Diego is a far cry from the snows of Yosemite.
She's interested in Hamadi because of the way he speaks. For example, in the story, when Susan and Susan's father asks Hamadi why he does not wish to return to his homeland in Lebanon, to see what has changed, and to reunite with old family and friends, Hamadi replies, "Remembrance is a form of meeting...I would not (wish to return to Lebanon). In fact, I already know. It is there and it is not there." As well as the way he speaks, it is what he does that interests her as well, such as when they are caroling at the start, Hamadi formally introduces himself to everyone, and near the ending of the story, one of the members of the carolers (Tracy to be exact) felt comfortable enough in him to cry in his arms, something no one would even DREAM of doing in Hamadi's cultural background, plus him giving her the special advice on persevering. This makes Susan become interested in Hamadi even more, whom she has come to see as a 'surrogate grandmother'.
Bethlehemes is a custom in Central Europe. Around Christmas and especially at Epiphany young people go from house to house, receive treats. They are dressed as the three wise men, or other "Bethlehem" characters. There can be 6 or 7 wisemen, or more, not just the usual three! They leader carries a star on a broom handle, and the group follows him or her from house to house, following the tradition of looking for the baby Jesus. Sometimes this star is 8 sided and of painted wood- yellow, or multi-colored in a geometric pattern. In other places (especially Germany) the star is more like a big pin-wheel, and in others still it is a lighted star lantern, the group following through the night air with their own lanterns as well. One other member of the troupe carries what looks like a small model of a church. Sometimes these are beautifully carved and hand painted representations of a church in the area. Sometimes they can be relatively large and heavy and are brought in by two men. When the "Bethlehemers" are welcomed into the house they sing, and everyone joins in. Then high point comes when the little church is opened up. There are not people inside but a beautiful nativity scene. Everyone looks at the nativity scene as though it were the first time the had ever seen one. Then everyone sings again, and treats are passed out to the visitors - chocolates, marzipan, toasted almonds or other nice things.For Catholics and Orthodox Christians in areas where the custom is still kept, this can be quite a formal and spiritual event, and the priest will come and bless the house with holy water and pine branches, and mark a blessing over the door in chalk for the new year. For Protestants and others though, this is mostly just fun.The term bethlehemes" comes from Bethlehemes jatek (pronounced: Bet-la-hem-esh Yah-teck) which means in the Hungarian language, Bethlehem game or Bethlehem Play. In Slavic lands this may be called Jaselka (Nativity Play) or Szopka (Manger). In German speaking lands these groups are called Sternsinger which means Star-Singers for the star which they carry. The custom of Bethlehemes is similar to British and American caroling. Today, while the older tradition is still strong, Bethlehemes may also be a Christmas Presentation given by the children of a school, just as in Britain and the United States during the month of December. One other important part of the Bethlehemes custom is that the "Wisemen" and "Bethlehemers" besides bringing and receiving treats, are given money, but they don't keep it. They are collecting for worthy causes like the disabled veterans or children in Africa. Bethlehemes goes on usually from the first Sunday in the New Year, for a week until the Sunday that follows Epiphany, they Sunday after Epiphany being the big day for doing this. "Bethlehemer" school children - often dozens of them, all dressed as wisemen- also visit the president of several countries, and say "Christ bless this house" at the Parliment, and sing in the capital.You've just reminded me to dust off my Three Kings costumes.
