spring festival! 俗话说，过了小年就 是年。春节将至，都有哪些年
味十足的传统习俗？这些习俗你都会用英文说吗？

贴春联

paste up/stick spring couplets/scrolls

春联通常是成对张贴，因为双数在中国文化中是好运和 吉祥的象征。
像所有武功秘籍一样，家家户户过年的基本功——贴春联也有一套
口诀：人朝门立 ，右手为上，左手为下。这句话意思是对联的出句
应贴在右手边（即门的左边），对句应贴在左手边（即 门的右边）。
春联的上下联张贴的位置不应太高或太低，一般应以门楣的高低为
准。

chinese characters that are auspicious for the coming year are
generally written on two pieces of red paper with ink and a
brush, and glued by the sides of the doors.

贴福字

paste up/stick the character of fu

“ 福”不仅代表着福气、福运，更代表着福。写在红纸上的“福”字表
达了中国人内心对幸福的向往。大家 印象中“福”字一般都是倒着贴，
谐音意为“福到”了。民俗专家表示，按照规范的民俗讲究，大门上< br>的福字必须是正贴，象征“迎福”和“纳福”之意，而且大门是家庭的
出入口，是一种庄重的地方 ，所贴的福字，须端庄大方，所以要正
贴。而室内的地方比如柜子、米缸等等就可以倒贴福字。

the character fu, or “happiness” is usually written on red
diamond-shaped posters. they are usually stuck upside down
on the doors. this is because the chinese character dao
(upside down) has the same sound as another dao, which
means “arrive”. placing fu

upside down symbolizes the arrival of happiness.

放烟花/鞭炮

set off fireworks/ firecrackers

传说中，烟花爆竹最开始是用来驱赶“ 年”这头怪兽的。而现在放烟
花、点鞭炮主要是为了增加节日气氛，让年味更浓。想象一下，除
夕夜，四处都被烟花的闪闪光芒映亮，鞭炮声震耳欲聋。一家人熬
夜就为这个欢乐的时刻，孩子们一手捂 着耳朵，一手兴高采烈地点
放着他们在这个特殊节日的快乐。这是属于我们所有人的春节记忆。

chinese people traditionally set off fireworks during spring
festival, in the belief that this helps scare off the nian and
brings good fortune at the beginning of the year and good luck
throughout the year.

拜年

pay lunar new year’s calls/visits; give spring festival greetings

拜年一般是家长带着家里的晚辈去拜见亲戚、朋友和长辈。有的地
方还会让晚辈跪下给老人磕 头，表达恭敬和祝福之意。

传统的拜年手势男女有别。标准的男子作揖姿势是右手成拳，左手
包住。因为右手是攻击手，

要包住以示善意。女子则相反，但女子不抱拳，只压手。

it’s important that you pay relatives and friends a new year’s
call during the holiday. this is done at people’s homes from
new year’s day to the 15th day, or the lantern festival. people
give each other best wishes and gifts. this is also a time for the
younger generation to bow or kowtow to the elders for health,
good fortune, work, and so on and to get a red package in
return. 压岁钱/红包

lucky money/ red envelop

一提起“红包”很多人现在想起的都是微信红包。但是红包的鼻祖可
是大家喜闻乐见的春节压岁钱啊。为什么钱要放在红包里呢？因为
中国人认为红色代表红红火火、生活 幸福。红包也包含了长辈对晚
辈的祝福和期待。在香港，不止小孩会拿到红包，只要为你服务的
人，都可以给ta一个红包，不过人家把这个叫“利是”。

for many young people, chinese new year is just as much
about yasuiqian — money in red envelopes traditionally given
to children. on the chinese mainland, kids get red envelopes at
home from their parents and relatives. in hong kong, it is also
customary to give lai see (利是), a gift of money, to anyone in
your personal service, such as nannies and cleaners.
