'''Serbian Christmas traditions''' are customs and practices of the [[Serbs]] associated with [[Christmas]] and a period encompassing it, between the third Sunday before [[Christmas Day]] and [[Epiphany (holiday)|Epiphany]]. There are many, complex traditions connected with this period. They vary from place to place, and in many areas have been updated or watered down to suit modern living. The [[Serbian language|Serbian]] name for Christmas is ''Božić'' ({{lang-sr-Cyrl|Божић}}, pronounced {{IPA-sh|ˈbǒʒitɕ|}}), which is the [[diminutive|diminutive form]] of the word ''bog'' ("god"), and can be translated as "young god". Christmas is celebrated for three consecutive days, starting with Christmas Day, which the Serbs call the first day of Christmas.<ref group=note>Christmas Day does not fall on the same day for the Serbs as for [[Western Christianity|Western Christians]], although they celebrate it on the same date—25 December. This is because the [[Serbian Orthodox Church]] uses the [[Julian calendar]] rather than the [[Gregorian calendar|Gregorian]] one used in the West. Since 1900, the Julian calendar is 13 days behind the Gregorian calendar, and will remain so until the year 2100. During this period, 25 December in the Julian calendar—Christmas Day for the Serbs—corresponds to 7 January of the following year in the Gregorian calendar.</ref> On these days, one is to greet another person by saying "Christ is Born," which should be responded to with "Truly He is Born," or in Serbian: "''Hristos se rodi''" (pronounced {{IPA-sh|xrǐstos se rôdi|}}) – "''Vaistinu se rodi''" (pronounced {{IPA-sh|ʋaǐstinu se rôdi|}}). |
