---- (:comment Write term as a title in lower case except where upper case or capitals are normally required:) '+Term:+' (:comment Write term on this line, after this comment:) Marian Circle '+Definition+': A commemorative gathering of the Salesian Family, involving a Hail Mary together on 8 December in memory of the 'founding' event of the Salesian Congregation, as explained by Don Bosco himself - his encounter with a certain Bartholomew Garelli in the sacristy of the Church of St Francis of Assisi in Turin, where he invited him to begin his catechism lessons. The description of this occasion in the Biographical Memoirs tells us that Don Bosco began with a silent but fervent prayer to Mary that she might help him save this boy's soul. ---- '''POS''' (part of speech).

'+Description+': The precise origins of this devotional activity, while clearly inspired by the Bartholomew Garelli 'event' as explained by Don Bosco, are not certain. It is celebrated more so in Italy than elsewhere, though Salesian Oratories in many parts of the world regard it as a devotion which is peculiarly theirs - their beginnings, so to speak.

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)
