Die Karnevals-Session startet.

Nun meine Frage:

was bedeutet eigentlich Helau und Alaaf?



Hel : Hölle  (Helau ?)

In der nordischen Mythologie tritt hel "Totenreich" auch personifiziert auf,
'Hel' als Name der germanischen

Todesgöttin.



Alaaf, all - af = alles ab.



Gibt es da noch nähere Erläuterungen?



Nehmt es mit Humor.



Hanne
