HBD is an abbreviation for Happy Birthday. As the name suggests, a birthday is the day a person is born and it is also the day when they turn a year older. However, in some cultures, it is also considered as the “day of suffering” for mothers. Back in the days when technology was not as advanced as it is now, giving birth was a dangerous process for women. There was a saying that “one foot is in the coffin and one foot is out of the coffin” when a mother gave birth. Therefore, they believe that on that day, the focus should be on honoring and filial piety towards the mother.
English is a West Germanic language that was first used in early medieval England and eventually became the most widely spoken language in the world due to its vast colonial territories. It was named by the Germanic tribe, the Angles, who were one of the Germanic tribes that later migrated to the British Isles and became known as England. Both names originated from the Anglia region on the Baltic Peninsula. The language is closely related to Frisian and Low Saxon, and its vocabulary has been greatly influenced by other Germanic languages, especially the North Germanic languages, and is largely written in Latin and French.
