n.圣誕老人

SantaClaus is a corruption of the Dutch Sinterklaas, which means simplySaint Nicholas. 他的英文名SantaClaus是德語 Sinterklaas的誤傳，而Sinterklaas的直譯就是“圣塔尼古拉斯”了。

SantaClaus, the joyful old man in the red suit and white beard, is probably the most famous figure of Christmas.He represents the giving of gifts， which is so important to the holiday. 沒有精靈，沒有雪橇，沒有馴鹿，沒有大鼻子，沒有紅色外套，沒有裝滿禮物的大布袋，圣誕老人還是圣誕老人么？
