俗话说，过了小年就是年。春节将至，都有哪些年味十足的传统习
俗？这些习俗你都会用英文 说吗？今天就让本君先陪你细数一番。

贴春联

paste upstick spring coupletsscrolls

据说，没有贴过春联的中国人，人生是不完整的！什么？你就没贴
过？ 嗯，好吧，朕知道了 。

春联通常是成对张贴，因为双数在中国文化中是好运和吉祥的象征。
像所有武功 秘籍一样，家家户户过年的基本功——贴春联也有一套
口诀：人朝门立，右手为上，左手为下。这句话意 思是对联的出句
应贴在右手边（即门的左边），对句应贴在左手边（即门的右边）。
春联的上下 联张贴的位置不应太高或太低，一般应以门楣的高低为
准。嗯，这套秘籍你掌握了没？

chinese characters that are auspicious for the coming year are
generally

written on two pieces of red paper with ink and a brush, and
glued by the sides of the doors.

贴福字

paste upstick the character of fu

AAAAAA

“福”不仅代表着福气、福运，更代表 着福。写在红纸上的“福”字表
达了中国人内心对幸福的向往。大家印象中“福”字一般都是倒着贴，< br>谐音意为“福到”了。但是福字一定要倒着贴吗？

民俗专家表示，按照规范的民俗 讲究，大门上的福字必须是正贴，
象征“迎福”和“纳福”之意，而且大门是家庭的出入口，是一种庄重
的地方，所贴的福字，须端庄大方，所以要正贴。而室内的地方比
如柜子、米缸等等就可以倒贴 福字。 世纪君认为，这两款贴法看你
喜欢，想怎么贴就怎么贴吧！

use the chinese character dao (upside down) has the same
sound as another dao, which means “arrive”. placing fu upside
down symbolizes the arrival of happiness.

放烟花鞭炮

set off fireworks firecrackers

老实交代，你是不是就是，或者曾经是 过年时用鞭炮“吓人”的那个
熊孩子？不过，鞭炮不是用来吓“人”的。传说中，烟花爆竹最开始
是用来驱赶“年”这头怪兽的。而现在放烟花、点鞭炮主要是为了增
加节日气氛，让年味更浓。想象一 下，除夕夜，四处都被烟花的闪
闪光芒映亮，鞭炮声震耳欲聋。一家人熬夜就为这个欢乐的时刻，
孩子们一手捂着耳朵，一手兴高采烈地点放着他们在这个特殊节日
的快乐。这是属于我们所有人的春节 记忆。

chinese people traditionally set off fireworks during spring
festival, in the belief that this helps scare off the nian and
brings good fortune at the beginning of the year and good luck
throughout the year.

拜年

pay lunar new year’s callsvisits; give spring festival greetings

“每条大街小巷，每 个人的嘴里，见面第一句话，就是恭喜恭
喜……”一到过年，伴随着熟悉的歌声，你就知道从初一一直延 续到
十五的集体说吉祥话大赛拉开帷幕啦！

拜年一般是家长带着家里的晚辈去拜见 亲戚、朋友和长辈。有的地
方还会让晚辈跪下给老人磕头，表达恭敬和祝福之意。

传统的拜年手势男女有别。标准的男子作揖姿势是右手成拳，左手
包住。因为右手是攻击手，要包住以示 善意。女子则相反，但女子
不抱拳，只压手。快看上图的小朋友姿势，多么标准，不要吝啬，
给 他10分！

AAAAAA

it’s important that you pay relatives and friends a new year’s
call during the holiday. this is done at people’s homes from
new year’s day to the 15th day, or the lantern festival. people
give each other best wishes and gifts. this is also a time for the
younger generation to bow or kowtow to the elders for health,
good fortune, work, and so on and to get a red package in
return. 压岁钱红包

lucky money red envelop

一提起“红包”很多人现在想起的都是微信红包。但是红包的鼻祖可是大家喜闻乐见的春节压岁钱啊。为什么钱要放在红包里呢？因为
中国人认为红色代表红红火火、生 活幸福。红包也包含了长辈对晚
辈的祝福和期待。在香港，不止小孩会拿到红包，只要为你服务的
人，都可以给ta一个红包，不过人家把这个叫“利是”。 for many
young people, chinese new year is just as much about
yasuiqian — money in red envelopes traditionally given to
children. on the chinese

mainland, kids get red envelopes at home from their parents
and relatives. in

hong kong, it is also customary to give lai see (利是), a gift of
money, to anyone in your personal service, such as nannies
and cleaners.

过年禁忌

new year taboos

过年虽然是一个放松的时候，但是也不是百无禁忌。首先一点就是
语 言上忌讳。过年的时候像“死”、“失败”、“病”这样比较晦气的话
不能说 。

打破碗碟也是忌讳。如果不小心打破了，在场的人必须以迅雷不及
掩耳盗铃儿响叮当之势，说上两句吉祥 的顺口溜，如“岁（碎）岁平
安”，“打发（大发，发财之意）”等来弥补。

words can reflect new year taboos. people tend to, for
example, avoid negative words, such as “failing”, “dying”, and
“illness” during new year’s celebrations. breaking a dish is
another taboo in some places, because it implies that you will
not have a thing to eat.

很多地方过年的时候不能扫地，或者扫地时只能往屋内扫，不能往
屋外扫 ，因为这样会把“财气”扫出去。春节期间也不能扔垃圾，因
AAAAAA

为同样有可能扔掉“财运”。但是现在，家里大鱼大肉吃顿年夜饭就
会有很多垃圾， 更别提从初一到十五，人来客往，无数顿好吃的，
这么多垃圾放在家里一直到正月十五也是醉了。对这些 禁忌，大家
随意啦~

people do not carry the garbage out or clean the house on
new year’s day or for the rest of the spring festival holiday, for
fear of sweeping away good luck.

【篇二：春节中英文简介】


春节是中国传统的新 年，它从中国农历正月的第一天开始到第十五
天结束，一共十五天。春节也预示着春天的来临。在新年的 前一段
时间，人们开始准备食物、买新衣服和打扫房间。很多家庭会在门
上贴上春联。按照习俗 ，所有的准备是希望新的一年会带来幸福和
好运。在中国，红色是好运的象征。

spring festival is the chinese new year. it

stthstarts on the 1 and ends on the 15 of lunar

january. spring festival celebrates the coming of spring.
several days before the new year, every family prepares rich
food, buys new clothes, and cleans the house. many families
buy or write spring festival couplets and put them on the door.
people believe that everything must be new and clean for the
spring festival celebration so that the new year will bring
happiness and good luck. in china, red represents luck.

在除夕夜，人们通常要到十二 点以后才睡觉，这叫“守岁”，“岁”也
是“年”的意思，通常人们用岁表示年龄，即一年是一岁。守岁 是送
走旧的一年迎来新的一年，所以在晚上12点时，很多家庭都会放鞭
炮以示新的一年的到来 。新年的第一天，也就是初一，人们基本上
都呆在家里。从年初二开始，人们起的很早，互相拜年并致以 新年
的祝福等。

ndat home. on the 2 day people get up early

and exchange new year’s greetings with relatives, friends,
neighbors, etc.

传统就是，从新年第一天开始直到正月十五，每 天都要吃不同的主
菜。从饺子、面条、春卷、年糕到汤圆。除了祭好五脏庙以外，每
一种食物也 有含义：比如饺子看起来就像金元宝，这意味来年的丰
衣足食。

AAAAAA

the tradition is to have different main courses everyday from
the 1st day of the new year to the 15th day of the new year,
from jiao zi (dumplings), noodles, spring rolls, sticky rice
cakes, and tang yuan (stuffed rice balls). besides culinary
satisfaction, each food has a meaning as well: for instance,
jiao zi looks like gold, implying a wealthy year ahead.

中文中“过年”这个词 组用以表示对春节（中国新年）的庆祝。“年”
这个字在中文里是一种恐怖的怪兽。因为“年”害怕红色 和火，所以
中国人会在门上悬挂“春联”写上美好祝福，并放鞭炮来赶跑它。这
个传统有点类似 西方人用大蒜和十字架吓跑吸血鬼的传统。

the term pass year is used for the spring festival (chinese
new year). the word year in chinese characters used to mean a
horrible beast. to combat the beast, the chinese hang good
luck wishes on red paper on the door and use fireworks in the
belief that the beast fears red and fire. this tradition in many
ways resemble the western belief of using garlic and crosses
to fight vampires.

pasting paper cuts and up sided fu 贴窗花和倒着的“福”字

通常带有吉祥图案的窗花传递节日喜庆和热闹的气氛和表达 中国人
期待幸福生活的美好愿望。除了贴窗花，在墙上，门上和房子周围
的门框上贴大小福字是 中国人表达对美好生活渴望的普遍习俗。

paper-cuts, usually with auspicious patterns, give a happy
and prosperous atmosphere of the festival and express the
good wishes of chinese people looking forward to a good life.
in addition to pasting paper-cuts on windows。

兰亭序

永和九年，岁在癸丑，暮春之初，会于会稽山阴之兰亭，修禊事
也 。群贤毕至，少长咸集。此地有崇山峻岭，茂林修竹；又有清
流激湍，映带左右，引以为流觞曲水，列坐 其次。虽无丝竹管弦
之盛，一觞一咏，亦足以畅叙幽情。是日也，天朗气清，惠风和
畅，仰观宇 宙之大，俯察品类之盛，所以游目骋怀，足以极视听
之娱，信可乐也。
夫人之相与， 俯仰一世，或取诸怀抱，晤言一室之内；或因寄
所托，放浪形骸之外。虽取舍万殊，静躁不同，当其欣于 所遇，
暂得于己，快然自足，不知老之将至。及其所之既倦，情随事迁，
感慨系之矣。向之所欣 ，俯仰之间，已为陈迹，犹不能不以之兴
怀。况修短随化，终期于尽。古人云：“死生亦大矣。”岂不痛
哉！
AAAAAA

每览昔人兴感之 由，若合一契，未尝不临文嗟悼，不能喻之于
怀。固知一死生为虚诞，齐彭殇为妄作。后之视今，亦犹今 之视
昔。悲夫！故列叙时人，录其所述，虽世殊事异，所以兴怀，其
致一也。后之览者，亦将有 感于斯文。

AAAAAA
