春节风俗特色英语

一、贴春联 —— Post new year's scrolls

每逢春节，无论城市还是农村，家家户户都要挑漂亮的红春联贴于门上，辞旧迎新，增加喜庆的节日气氛。春联的另一来源是春贴，古人在立春日多贴“宜春”二字，后渐渐发展为春联，表达了中国劳动人民一种辟邪除灾、迎祥纳福的美好愿望。这一习俗起于宋代，在明代开始盛行。

二、吃饺子 —— Eat dumplings

春节的第一顿饭都是吃饺子。煮饺子时，要鸣放鞭炮。为驱邪恶、求吉利，有的地区烧火煮饺子要用芝麻秸，意味着新的一年像芝麻开花节节高，日子越过越好。饺子要煮得多，必须有余，意在有余头。就餐时，除每人一碗外，还要多盛一两碗，意在希望人丁兴旺。

三、守岁迎新年 —— watch in the New Year

守岁是中国民间在除夕的习俗，又称照虚耗、熬年、熬夜。指在除夕夜一家人团聚，熬夜迎接农历新年的到来。除夕守岁是最重要的年俗活动之一，守岁之俗由来已久。

四、放鞭炮 —— touch off the firecracker

放爆竹是中国传统民俗，已有两千多年历史，相传是为了驱赶一种叫年的怪兽。当午夜交正子时，新年钟声敲响，整个中华大地上空，爆竹声震响天宇。在这“岁之元、月之元、时之元”的“三元”时刻，有的地方还在庭院里垒“旺火”，以示旺气通天，兴隆繁盛。

五、拜年 —— pay a New Year's call

拜年是中国民间的传统习俗，是人们辞旧迎新、相互表达美好祝愿的一种方式。古时“拜年”一词原有的含义是为长者拜贺新年，包括向长者叩头施礼、祝贺新年如意、问候生活安好等内容。
