七夕“乞巧”的风俗由来已久，年轻女孩子们在这一天乞求的，不仅仅是巧夺天工的好手艺，还会乞求一段美好姻缘。似乎是TVB剧中经常出现七夕之夜女子祈求姻缘的桥段~不知道今年七夕，有多少人会在星空之下默默祈祷呢?

On that night, unmarried girls prayed to the Weaving Maid star for the special gift. When the star Vega was high up in the sky, girls performed a small test by placing a needle on the water's surface: If the needle did not sink, the girl was considered to be ready to find a husband. Once a year, on this day, girls could wish for anything their hearts desired。

七夕之夜，未婚女子通常会向织女星乞巧，也会乞求姻缘。她们将一根针放在水面上，倘若针不下沉的话，她们就能得偿所愿。据说这一晚女孩子们能祈求任何心愿成真。

这里“乞巧”的这个“乞”，我们可以说beg，也可以用plead这个词，plead to be endowed with perfect sewing skills. 貌似这两个词都和浪漫气氛不符哦，plead其实更常见于法庭上，律师为某人辩护，就是plead one's case;而那句我们耳熟能详的“不认罪”，则是plead not guilty，反之“认罪”就是plead guilty——注意这里的用法，比较特殊哦，是在动词plead后面直接加形容词guilty——法官就会经常问这句话：Do you plead guilty or not guilty?你可认罪?也有一个更常见的情况，就是被告人plead insanity，以精神失常为借口，试图减轻刑罚。

回到七夕乞巧的风俗吧，乞巧是为了精进自己的女红手艺，女红(注意啊注意啊，这里的“红”读音是“工”，不要读错了哦)也就是针线活，用英语说就是doing needlework。印象中女红活儿就是 刺绣 (embroider)吧，不知道现在还有多少女孩子会刺绣活儿呢?似乎大家都更prefer简单易学的 十字绣 (cross-stitch)了。那么，学十字绣的话，也是需要乞一下巧的吧……

至于祈求姻缘，这个恐怕还是要看缘分哦，如果两个人是predestined to be together，那么是无论如何都会相遇并相爱的吧。在这里祝天下有情人终成眷属吧!(All shall be well, and Jack shall have Jill!)
