You use this when you are not sure of the pronunciation or reading of a word .
Special note:

Smart in this means very quick and not hesiststing .
Smart does not always mean intelligent .

Talking bout Christmas

Why do we celebrate Christmas in December
It's been tradition from ancient Rome. They had had parties for any reasons.In the winter time Saturn is the clearest to see and they want to have  gathering to see it.
 In the winter most of plants are brown,so evergreen looks lively and healthy that's why Christmas tree,and of course red stands out on green.
By the way Jesus Christ was born in spring.
 Christmas is not only receiving but also giving.You should give things away to the people who sing Christmas carol to get blessing from God.
