11 Uskršnje jaje = Pisanica (HR), Easter eggs Bojati (HR), farbati (SRB) – to colour (boja=colour) Jaje, jaja (ž.r) = egg Na Uskrs ljudi bojaju (farbaju) jaja!

12 You can colour an empty eggs, by making a hole in the egg and letting the egg seep out of the shell.

13 Today, eggs are coloured with ready made colours, but in the past different kind of vegetables were used for colouring eggs: onion peel (luk) or beetroot (cikla) for red colour (crvena boja) Red is a symbol of joy of life and love In Christianity, of God’s love, Resurrection, hope and blood of Jesus spilled for the salvation of humanity

16 In Serbia, many of the eggs are colored red, because red is the symbol of Jesus’ blood and Resurraction. This is because in Orthodox Christianity, it is believed that Mary Magdalede spoke about Christ’s Resurrection with the Roman emperor Tiberius during the dinner. Tiberius scoffed at her, saying that a man could rise from the dead no more than the egg in her hand could turn red. Immediately, the egg turned red.
