端午节风俗的英语

一、吃粽子

粽子又称“角黍”，“筒粽”，在晋代被正式定为端午节食品。在当时，粽子还用作礼尚往来之物。如今，粽子的花色品种更为繁多。从馅料看，北方多包小枣的北京枣粽，南方以浙江嘉兴粽子为代表。吃粽子的风俗，千百年来，在中国盛行不衰，而且流传到东亚及东南亚等国。

I. Eating Zongzi

Zongzi, also known as "Corn Millet" and "Tube Zongzi", was officially designated as Dragon Boat Festival food in Jin Dynasty. At that time, zongzi was also used as a ritual object. Nowadays, there are more varieties of rice dumplings. From the stuffing point of view, Beijing jujube zongzi with many small bags in the north is represented by Jiaxing zongzi in Zhejiang Province in the south. The custom of eating zongzi has been prevalent in China for thousands of years and spread to East Asia and Southeast Asia.

二、赛龙舟

赛龙舟前，先要请龙、祭神。人们祭祀龙神庙时气氛很严肃，多祈求农业丰收、风调雨顺、去灾异、事事如意，也保佑划船平安。划龙舟时，多有唱歌或念口号助兴。声音雄浑壮美，扣人心弦，也增加赛龙舟时的氛围。

2. Dragon Boat Race

Before the Dragon Boat race, please invite the dragon and worship the God first. When people worship the Dragon Temple, the atmosphere is very serious. They pray for a good harvest in agriculture, good weather, disaster relief, good luck in everything, and also for the safety of boating. When rowing dragon boats, there are often singing or chanting slogans to cheer up. The sound is magnificent and exciting, which also increases the atmosphere of dragon boat racing.

三、挂艾草

民谚说：“清明插柳，端午插艾”。艾草所产生的奇特芳香，可驱蚊蝇、虫蚁，净化空气。是提神通窍、健骨消滞、杀虫灭菌的良物。端午节在家门口挂艾草，就像贴上一道灵符，可以趋利避害。人们一般会将艾草绑成一束，然后插在门楣上，或是在门楣两端分别插上一根艾草。

3. hanging mugwort

The folk proverb says, "Put willows in the clear sky and Ai in the Dragon Boat Festival". The peculiar aroma produced by argyrophytes can repel mosquitoes, flies and ants and purify the air. It is a good product for invigorating the mind and promoting the resuscitation, invigorating the bones and eliminating stagnation, insecticidal and sterilization.

端午节是古老的传统节日，始于中国的春秋战国时期，至今已有2000多年历史。端午节的由来与传说很多，但是如今传承最广的是几年屈原的说法。

据《史记》“屈原贾生列传”记载，屈原，是春秋时期楚怀王的大臣。他倡导举贤授能，富国强兵，力主联齐抗秦，遭到贵族子兰等人的强烈反对，屈原遭馋去职，被赶出都城，流放到沅、湘流域。

他在流放中，写下了忧国忧民的《离骚》、《天问》、《九歌》等不朽诗篇，独具风貌，影响深远(因而，端午节也称诗人节)。公元前278年，秦军攻破楚国京都。

屈原眼看自己的祖国被侵略，心如刀割，但是始终不忍舍弃自己的祖国，于五月五日，在写下了绝笔作《怀沙》之后，抱石投汨罗江身死，以自己的生命谱写了一曲壮丽的爱国主义乐章。
