Christmas Pictionary Words

Christmas is the perfect time to get together with friends and family. And, what better way to have fun with your favorite people than by playing a game!

If you are looking for a festive game that is great for groups, then you’ll want to consider pictionary!

The great thing about pictionary is that you can keep it simple–all you need is a timer, pen/pencil, paper and word cards to play.

How to Play Pictionary

The goal of Pictionary is to guess what word the designated drawer of the team is drawing.

It is hilarious and fun and perfect for all ages.

To play pictionary, first, divide your group into teams.

One team goes first and designates a drawer. The drawer picks up a card, reads the word to themselves, and begins to draw the word.

The timer starts ticking down as the drawer’s teammates try to guess the word.

If the team guesses the word, they get a point!

Then, another team gets a turn to play. At the end of the game (you can choose to end the game after each team gets a certain number of turns), whoever has the most points wins!

You can change the rules to suit your group of people, but this is a general overview of how to play.

Words for Christmas Pictionary

To make this game Christmas-themed, use some of the following words.

Write each word on a notecard, and turn them face down. When it’s your turn to draw, choose the top card, read it to yourself, and begin play!

  • presents
  • carolers
  • christmas tree
  • santa claus
  • reindeer
  • elves
  • hot cocoa
  • santa’s sleigh
  • candy cane
  • pumpkin pie
  • snowman
  • snowflake
  • North Pole
  • christmas lights
  • wrapping paper
  • mistletoe
  • nutcracker
  • little drummer boy
  • angel

Christmas is a time for families, friends, and celebrations. It’s also a time to say “Merry Christmas!” and up some cards with your favorite Christmas words. There are tons of Christmas cards, but only a handful are worth buying. Those you believe should speak the truth of how much you care about the person on the front page — the one you will keep in your wallet or even frame.

Some Facts about Christmas Words

Christmas is when words are spoken and written, and we always do this with a certain level of reverence. You want to ensure that we have the right words to say at the right time. Christmas is a time of magic, and the words we use can be magic too.

  • First off, Christmas is a time of year when your words matter because it’s a holiday that involves giving and receiving. This means you want to use the best terms when speaking or to write about the holiday.
  • Secondly, there are several different types of words that you can use when talking about Christmas. You can talk about the name of Jesus Christ, which is why there are so many different ways to say “Christmas” in English (like “Christmas Day”).
  • Thirdly, if you want to make sure that your word choice is appropriate for your audience, you need to consider their age group and gender too! The rules for writing or speaking about these topics are slightly different for each case.

Here are facts about some of my favorite Christmas words.

The word Christmas

The word “Christmas” comes from an old Germanic pagan festival called Christmastide, which was celebrated to honor the birth of Christ. The Germanic people who lived in what is now Germany, Switzerland, and Denmark worshipped a god called Santa Claus (Saint Nicholas), who brought gifts to children at this time of year. This was later adapted into Christmas celebrations for Christians.

Christmas

Christmas comes from the Latin word “Christes maesse,” meaning the “mass” or solemnity of Christ’s birth. The Latin phrase maesse means both mass and sacrifice and refers to the Roman Catholic Church’s celebration of Jesus’ birth as part of their Lenten period when they fasted and gave alms to charity (see Lent & Easter).

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Feliz Navidad.

The first one is probably the one you are most familiar with. It’s a greeting that means “Merry Christmas.” It’s also used to wish someone a happy holiday season or to say goodnight on the phone before hanging up.

The second one is more commonly used in Spain and Latin America. It means “Happy Holidays,” similar to English but not quite the same.

The third one is something that Spanish speakers use to wish someone a happy New Year. It’s also used as a greeting among friends who aren’t close enough for them to exchange gifts or cards yet still want to wish each other well for the new year.

Many words have become associated with Christmas, but as this post shows, many other words were used before English became the global language. Unsurprisingly, these words remained in the vocabulary of nations where English has never been the primary language. Some words are too attached to Love and Peace for them ever to be replaced, making them forever part of the collective vocabulary.

Below is a massive list of christmas words — that is, words related to christmas. The top 4 are: holiday, christmas tree, gift and santa claus. You can get the definition(s) of a word in the list below by tapping the question-mark icon next to it. The words at the top of the list are the ones most associated with christmas, and as you go down the relatedness becomes more slight. By default, the words are sorted by relevance/relatedness, but you can also get the most common christmas terms by using the menu below, and there’s also the option to sort the words alphabetically so you can get christmas words starting with a particular letter. You can also filter the word list so it only shows words that are also related to another word of your choosing. So for example, you could enter «holiday» and click «filter», and it’d give you words that are related to christmas and holiday.

You can highlight the terms by the frequency with which they occur in the written English language using the menu below. The frequency data is extracted from the English Wikipedia corpus, and updated regularly. If you just care about the words’ direct semantic similarity to christmas, then there’s probably no need for this.

There are already a bunch of websites on the net that help you find synonyms for various words, but only a handful that help you find related, or even loosely associated words. So although you might see some synonyms of christmas in the list below, many of the words below will have other relationships with christmas — you could see a word with the exact opposite meaning in the word list, for example. So it’s the sort of list that would be useful for helping you build a christmas vocabulary list, or just a general christmas word list for whatever purpose, but it’s not necessarily going to be useful if you’re looking for words that mean the same thing as christmas (though it still might be handy for that).

If you’re looking for names related to christmas (e.g. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas. The results below obviously aren’t all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. If your pet/blog/etc. has something to do with christmas, then it’s obviously a good idea to use concepts or words to do with christmas.

If you don’t find what you’re looking for in the list below, or if there’s some sort of bug and it’s not displaying christmas related words, please send me feedback using this page. Thanks for using the site — I hope it is useful to you! 🐜

That’s about all the christmas related words we’ve got! I hope this list of christmas terms was useful to you in some way or another. The words down here at the bottom of the list will be in some way associated with christmas, but perhaps tenuously (if you’ve currenly got it sorted by relevance, that is). If you have any feedback for the site, please share it here, but please note this is only a hobby project, so I may not be able to make regular updates to the site. Have a nice day! 🐬
