  • @indianahobbit Thank you very much! Indeed, I've checked it in an etymological dictionary and that is the root word! Furthermore, I've discovered that 'carole' in French comes from the Latin 'chorus', which meant the exact same thing (circular danse) and was itself derived from ancient Greek (χορός - horos). In Romanian, 'chorus'/'horos' led to 'hora' - which is still practised as a popular traditional dance. Here I am, much wiser than a couple of days ago :)

  • @alunesifistic As far as I'm aware a carol doesnt always have to be relating to Christmas. It can relate to anything. I believe it refers more to the style than the subject matter. Though they tend to be in celebration or commemoration of an event.

    According to wikipedia (I know not always the most accurate source) Carol comes from the french word Carole, a circular dance accompanied by singing or singers.
