In the past, these cards showed a photograph of the card-giver offering a gift to their lover. Today, though, any kind of card exchanged on Valentine’s Day is called a lover’s card.
Also on February 14, Danish men often give women something called a “gaekkebrev.” In English, this translates to a “joke letter.” They are often written as a poem on specially created cut paper. But the writer does not sign the letter using his name. Instead, he uses dots – one for each letter in his name. According to tradition, if the woman correctly guesses who sent her the joke letter, she gets an Easter egg that same year.]]> 2021-02-12 16:51:44 UTC https://padlet.com/marycarmengonzalez1/m1ydnybgwmyu/wish/1197287611 Carmina- France https://padlet.com/marycarmengonzalez1/m1ydnybgwmyu/wish/1197288386 Traditionally the French celebrated Valentine’s Day with “une loterie d’amour”.
