文化的背景

In Portugal, it is common to give two kisses (one on each cheek) while saying 'Muitos parabéns'. The birthday person usually provides the cake for others. Brazilians are very enthusiastic. The 'Parabéns' song is often accompanied by a rhythmic clap called 'batendo palmas'. The first slice of cake is traditionally given to the most important person in the birthday person's life. Celebrations are often large communal events with lots of food and music. 'Muitos parabéns' is said with great warmth and often followed by 'Muitas felicidades'. Similar to other Lusophone countries, but often includes traditional songs alongside the standard Portuguese 'Parabéns' song.
