27 лютого. День ретро

День ретро відзначає ностальгію за минулим, повертаючи до моди, музики, автомобілів і культури минулих десятиліть. Це можливість поринути у чарівність епох, що минули, і оцінити їхній вплив на сучасність. Свято нагадує про важливість збереження культурної спадщини.

Слово дня: “НОСТАЛЬГІЯ" -  болісна туга за батьківщиною або минулим.

Музика у стилі ретро викликала приємну ностальгію, повертаючи спогади про безтурботні юнацькі дні.

The word of the day:  throwback (noun) /ˈθroʊ.bæk/

Meaning: a reminder of or return to a past time, practice, or trend.

Example: This song is a total throwback to my high school days.
