"Donder" and "bliksem" are both Dutch words for Thunder and Lightning, since the Christmas tradition was completely based off the Dutch tradition Sinterklaas :) You're Welcome
Wait are you saying Christmas as a tradition is based on Sinterklaas or that Donder and Bliksem are based on Sinterklaas? Edit: Sinterklaas is the Dutch name for Saint Nicholas so yeah a big part of nowadays Christmas is based on the Dutch tradition celebrating Sinterklaas. Not everything but a lot. For example reindeers aren’t a part of Sinterklaas tradition. The other traditions when celebrating Christmas that is not connected to Sinterklaas is believed to come from a lot of different traditions over different places in Europe where people usually celebrated a good harvest or that light will soon shine down upon them again or because they usually slaughtered their animals near the middle of December they had a party near that time. There was even a danish king that made a rule that if you don’t party until it’s over you’re gonna get fined. Wack traditions but lovely nonetheless
I haven't researched it recently, but from what I remember, Krampus has a switch, (like a big stick or branch), that he would smack the naughty children with. Eating them was probably a change made by horror fans or particularly mean parents
I bet it's the other way around. It usually is. What I mean by that is, I bet the myth was made more lighthearted since being dark and gorey isn't as favored nowadays.
@@linuszarrouk2004 Vixen comes from the Dutch "Fixen", meaning "to manipulate to your will". Similar in origin to where "match fixing" in English comes from. And in dated Dutch can be translated as "magical". In German it's an inflection of "quick", but considering the original writer of the poem didn't speak German, was a New Yorker and used New York Dutch words for Dondor and Blixen it's safe to assume they wrote it in Dutch, but the German translation also fits. Though it should be noted Vixen also can mean the same as in English, but lacks that meaning in Dutch. And I personally doubt they'd go with a word also meaning "angry/fierce attractive woman".
for anyone wondering, the wingdings that appear on the screen translate to "what was the first pokemon ever designed?". I have no clue what this means but the answer is rhydon
23:00 As a german, im only aware of that the Krampus scares children who weren't nice. In contrast the "Nikolaus" gives candy to nice children on the 6th of dezember. I also heard that due to the look of the Krampus and the loud noises it makes it is supposed to scare of winterghosts 🤷♀️

I'm certain someone has already mentioned this, but "Donner" and "Blitzen" are the German words for "Thunder" and "Lightning." So the last two reindeer are named Thunder and Lightning! Probably because Donner is noisy and Blitzen is fast.
"Sheik doesn't talk" Sheik is literally exposition the character in her game and nobody pointed that out? Out of the four of them, not one has them has managed to finished OoT? Dunder and Blixen HAS to be an Australian thing. That's not the names I've always heard. They're Dancer and Dasher and Prancer and Vixen and Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. Then of course Rudolph.
As many other comments have said, Donder and Bliksem are their Dutch names while Donner and Blitzen are derived from German. Dutch is also the origin of Christmas with Saint Nicolas, who was a man that dressed up in a red suit and gave toys to orphanages in the Winter time. In both languages, they mean "Thunder" and "Lightning"
"If your Bowser jr is Jesus I'm gonna be god." Me: "Ah, the dad of Jesus, so obv Bowser, the dad of Bowser jr. "Dog is god backwards" *picks Duck Hunt*
What krampus actually does is put bad kids in his bag, beat the bag with sticks, take them to the north pole for a year to make them good, then return them
Fun fact: The reason gold, frankincense, and myrrh were given to baby Jesus is because they were all considered gifts for a king at the time due to how expensive and rare they were. Myrrh was also commonly used on sacrifices priests made at that time, foreshadowing Jesus death on the cross.
They just offended every dutch/flemish person to ever live with that conversation about the name Bliksem (dutch word for lightning), i should know, im one of them

Donner and Blitzen are German for Thunder and Flash, respectively.
TIL. I knew Blitz was lightning, but Donner is new to me. Cheers, merry Christmas. ✌
Not Flash, but lightning. Also it's New York Dutch, not German. Donner wasn't a word in German when the original poem was written (1823).

Fun Fact: Rudolphs father is Donner, and its also Blitzen. But he also has a mom. So yeah Christmas lore is fucked.
what in the actual polyamorous north pole fck
I love the names Donder and Blitzen because they are German for "Thunder" and "Lightning." They are probably the manliest reindeer

There's a reindeer named *Blitzen* and another one named *Vixen* , I'm pretty sure you just mushed their names together to make *Blixen* .
