English

Subject field(s)
  • Baby and Child Care
  • Festivals, Carnivals and Social Events
CONT

A baby shower party is conducted before the birth of a newborn. Generally, it is a simple get together of family and friends where the to-be-mom is honored. The formal gathering generally starts with a little food and picks up excitement as the gifts are revealed.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Soins du bébé et puériculture
  • Festivals, carnavals et fêtes
CONT

Les semaines précédant la naissance d'un bébé peuvent être fébriles pour la future maman. À l'occasion d'une réception-cadeau pour bébé, on peut non seulement lui offrir un soutien affectif pour la rassurer, mais aussi lui donner certains articles essentiels pour le bébé, ce qui allège la charge financière qu'entraîne cette arrivée.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Puericultura
  • Festivales y carnavales y eventos sociales
DEF

Fiesta que se realiza, por lo regular, de uno a tres meses antes del nacimiento de un bebé, con la intención de celebrarlo y proveer a sus padres con algunos de los objetos y accesorios necesarios, tales como ropa, juguetes, pañales, biberones, etcétera, para su cuidado.

OBS

Las expresiones fiesta de nacimiento y fiesta del bebé para aludir a la fiesta en la que se ofrecen regalos a los padres de un niño que está a punto de nacer o es recién nacido, son preferibles al anglicismo baby shower. [...] En español, tal como indica el Diccionario de la Real Academia Española, existe la palabra natalicio para referirse a las fiestas que se hacen el día del nacimiento, pero en la actualidad esta voz se refiere más específicamente a los cumpleaños, por lo que es preferible decir fiesta de nacimiento; no obstante, si se desea precisar que se celebra antes de la llegada del bebé, como ocurre normalmente, puede hablarse de fiesta prenatal. Alternativas de amplio uso en algunos países, y también válidas, son té de canastilla y fiesta de pañales.

OBS

Es una fiesta, de origen Estado Unidense, que la mujeres de la familia y las amigas de la futura madre organizan. En esta fiesta no solo se obsequian objetos al futuro bebé, sino que también se comparten experiencias relacionadas a la maternidad, juegos, comidas, pequeños regalos para los invitados, etcétera. Antes era una reunión exclusiva de mujeres, en la actualidad el padre del futuro bebé puede participar así como parejas de amigos o familiares. En algunos países esta fiesta no se celebra sino hasta que el bebé ha nacido.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Grain Growing
OBS

Jowar is an important food over much of the country, and especially in the dry areas of the central and southern states. Millions of Indians eat it. Some use it like rice, but most jowar is milled into flour.... Jowar grain is also malted(germinated), and in this form it finds its way into various processed products, including beer and baby foods. The grains of certain varieties pop like popcorn when heated.

OBS

For perhaps 20 centuries, sorghum has been a staple of South Asia. Today, for example, it occupies at least 20 million hectares in India, more area than any other food crop except rice. In monetary terms "jowar," as it is locally called, is perhaps India’s third most valuable food plant, exceeded only by rice and wheat.
