For some, it may be just another Thursday. But for Americans, it\u2019s Thanksgiving. This means they will be having dinner with friends or family and they will be eating roast turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie (among many other dishes, because Thanksgiving Day is all about the food). In this post, you&#8217;ll learn about the origins of this popular American holiday, as well as&nbsp;explore&nbsp;the food and the traditions regarding this day.&nbsp;<\/span>Keep reading for some <strong>Thanksgiving English vocabulary<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-turkey-day-origins\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Turkey Day origins<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">There are many theories about the origins of this holiday. One of the most popular versions is that it all began in 1621 when Pilgrim settlers from England decided to invite&nbsp;Native Americans to dinner. The Pilgrims were a group of English people who went to America seeking religious freedom. They first moved to the Netherlands, but later left that country to establish a colony in the United States. The Pilgrims crossed the Atlantic on the ship known as the Mayflower and they arrived in the USA in September 1620. They established a colony at Plymouth, Massachusetts, but they faced many hardships since winter was approaching. Many of them died in the first cold months.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29185\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-512x512.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Veggies-1-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">According to the story, the Pilgrims started to plant crops as soon as spring came. Summer ended and they were able to harvest a good amount of corn and barley, which&nbsp;would&nbsp;make them last through winter.&nbsp;To&nbsp;celebrate the harvest, they decided to have a special dinner. Some members of&nbsp;a&nbsp;Native American&nbsp;tribe were invited to the dinner party and that celebration lasted three days. That event is known as the \u201cFirst Thanksgiving\u201d.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Side note: In the United States,&nbsp;there are multiple terms to describe the indigenous people who lived on that land before the English, Spanish and French colonizers arrived. The best term to use is Native American or indigenous&nbsp;people. However, Christopher Columbus popularized the term \u201cIndian\u201d, and some people still use this. It is not&nbsp;accurate,&nbsp;and you should not use the term \u201cIndian\u201d for a&nbsp;Native American.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-than-pilgrims-and-indians\">More than Pilgrims and Indians<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">However, for some historians, the origins of Thanksgiving are way more complex than just the&nbsp;seemingly cheerful&nbsp;story about \u201cPilgrims and Indians\u201d.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In 1789, President George Washington signed the National Thanksgiving Proclamation, which is the first formal proclamation of Thanksgiving in the USA. In his text, the president says that this day would be&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">devoted to thanking God for \u201cHis kind care and protection\u201d and \u201cin general for all the great and various favors which He hath been pleased to confer upon us\u201d. Nothing about \u201cPilgrims and Indians\u201d here.&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">However, the national holiday was created only in the middle of the American Civil War, by President Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln decided to do so after a series of editorials written by writer Sarah Josepha Hale. In 1863, he declared the last Thursday in November a national holiday of Thanksgiving. Since the United States was in the middle of a civil war, he thought a holiday would be good to celebrate national unity. Again, nothing about \u201cPilgrims and Indians\u201d here.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">In 1939, there was another change to the holiday of Thanksgiving. Some business leaders asked&nbsp;President Franklin Roosevelt to move Thanksgiving from the last Thursday of November to the fourth Thursday of that month. They wanted to do so to permit an extra week of Christmas shopping. For the past 81 years, Americans have been celebrating&nbsp;Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Thanksgiving holiday ESL vocabulary about turkey\" class=\"wp-image-29186\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-512x288.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-16x9.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Blog-Banners-Bruna-28-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-thanksgiving-around-the-world\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Thanksgiving around the world<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:120,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">Even though nobody is as crazy about Thanksgiving as Americans are, there are other countries that also celebrate this holiday.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">In Canada, the holiday happens every second Monday of&nbsp;October.

It is the busiest shopping day of the year in the United States. The explanation for the name &#8216;Black Friday&#8217; is that it marks the season where the retailers go from being \u201cin the red\u201d to being \u201cin&nbsp;the black\u201d, which means they are making profit.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-1024x668.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25917\" width=\"512\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-512x334.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-768x501.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-1536x1002.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-2048x1336.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-16x10.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-200x131.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-400x261.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-600x392.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-800x522.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lingobest.com\/free-online-english-course\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ashkan-forouzani-sUlR4Iul-9c-unsplash-1200x783.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-thanksgiving-movies-to-watch\">4 <span data-contrast=\"auto\">Thanksgiving movies to watch&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">I found out about Thanksgiving by watching movies. I clearly remember asking my mom if we could celebrate Thanksgiving Day at my house. She knew little to nothing about the holiday and I couldn\u2019t understand why she said it didn\u2019t make sense to celebrate it. \u201cIt\u2019s an American holiday. We don\u2019t do this here,\u201d she would say. Looking back, I think that roast turkey and pumpkin pie don\u2019t really go along with the beginning of summer and the usual 35-degree weather we get in Brazil at the end of November. Anyways, since I didn\u2019t celebrate it at home, my personal Thanksgiving tradition was (and still is) watching movies related to the holiday.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">Check out this list of great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esquire.com\/entertainment\/movies\/a50559\/great-thanksgiving-movies-to-watch-this-holiday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-old-href=\"https:\/\/www.esquire.com\/entertainment\/movies\/a50559\/great-thanksgiving-movies-to-watch-this-holiday\/\" data-lasso-id=\"98\">Thanksgiving&nbsp;movies<\/a> to watch on November 26th.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-planes-trains-automobiles-1987\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">Planes, Trains &amp; Automobiles (1987)&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This comedy movie with Steve Martin and John Candy tells the story of two men who are trying to get home in time for Thanksgiving.

My name is Bruna, I'm 29 and I'm a journalist. I was born and raised in Brazil and I currently live in southern Brazil. I work as a content writer here at PrepEng and I have taught English as a Second Language for over 5 years. I love writing about English grammar and vocabulary.
