On the first day of the New Year or shortly thereafter, everybody wears new clothes and brings New Year Greetings to their relatives and friends, wishing each other good luck, happiness during the new year. 在春节的头一天或之后几天,大家都会身着新衣,向亲戚好友拜年,彼此祝愿在新的一年里万事如意、幸福美满。 例:How do you celebrate the spring festival in China? 例:May the beauty and joy of New Year remain with you. 另外还有一个有趣的小知识,在国外,当有人打喷嚏时,其他人会说“bless you”。这一习俗据说起源于中世纪的欧洲,当时瘟疫流行,打喷嚏被视为其征兆,所以其他人会在这时马上为他送去祈求和祝福 (god) bless you。 Bless一词多跟宗教相关。小伙伴们也可以使用其他更为常见的祝福语。 例:Warm greetings and best wishes for happiness and good luck in the coming year. |
