除夕到啦~今年腊月二十九就是除夕啦，又是特别的一年呢！除夕意味着辞旧迎新，因此这一天晚上人们往往守岁迎新。今年的内容就是关于除夕的一些习俗，我们一起往下看吧！ Decorate Their Houses 贴年红，挂灯笼 除夕的时候，家家户户挂起灯笼，贴春联充满着着浓浓的节日氛围。 Houses are decorated with red lanterns, red couplets, paper cutouts, and New Year’s paintings. Putting up these types of decorations are thought to keep evil away, and help pray for blessing, longevity, health, and peace. 除夕夜大家一般都会通宵守夜，全家团聚在一起吃年夜饭。
Chinese families stay up on Chinese New Year's Eve to countdown and ring in the new year. 没错，辞旧迎新可以用ring in the new year来表达。 Watch the Spring Festival Gala
看春晚 看春晚也是除夕夜的经典项目了，虽然有时可能变成了打麻将，包饺子的背景音乐，不过除夕的晚上大家还是会把电视机打开，和家人一起观看春晚节目。毕竟，零点的倒数环节还是很有氛围的。另外，今年的零点貌似会和航空出差三人组连线，可以期待一下hhh~ Families stay up to watch the Spring Festival Gala after their meal, one of China's most-watched shows. It features China's biggest celebrities, and there is a mix of dancing, singing, and other performances to entertain the entire family for the whole night. 倒数之后大家可能就开始在微信上发红包抢红包了。又到了拼手速和网速的时刻。大家到时候保持好状态，多抢几个红包哟！ People spend the night wishing their friends and family a happy new year via WeChat messaging, and even send electronic red envelopes with money to friends, and family. 炮竹声声辞旧岁，放炮竹也是除夕的经典BGM了，当然现在好多城市都禁烟了，可能氛围会差一点，不过空气应该会更好一点不是嘛？ In the past, people would burn bamboo ad midnight as the devil was believed to be scared of this sound. It means to scare away all bad and evil spirits. 团圆饭这个重要的项目放在最后压轴。套用TVB电视剧经典台词，最重要的是一家人齐齐整整开开心心。没错，团圆饭就是将家人集合在一起的重要时刻。当然因为疫情的原因，这几年可能有的朋友没有办法和家人在一起，但是记得要打个视频电话哟，可以一起云团聚嘛。 Dishes brought out have special meanings, such as fish, the Chinese word for which sounds like 'surplus'. There are also lots of dumplings, which represent wealth, and glutinous rice cakes, the Chinese word for which means to gain "a higher position" or "a higher income", all things people wish for themselves and their family members in the new year.
