英语春节的来历（短）

Answer 1

英文版：

The Spring Festival falls on the 1st day of the 1st lunar month,often one month later than the Gregorian calendar.It originated in the Shang Dynasty (c.1600 BC-c.1100 BC) from the people's sacrifice to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one.

翻译：春节是农历正月初一，通常比公历晚一个月。它起源于商朝（约公元前1600年至公元前1100年），源于人们在元旦末和新的一年初祭祀神和祖先。

扩展：春节，即农历新年，一年之岁首，传统上的“年节”。俗称新春、新岁、新年、新禧、年禧、大年等，口头上又称度岁、庆岁、过年、过大年。春节历史悠久，由上古时代岁首祈年祭祀演变而来。万物本乎天、人本乎祖，祈年祭祀、敬天法祖，报本反始也。春节的起源蕴含着深邃的文化内涵，在传承发展中承载了丰厚的历史文化。在春节期间，全国各地均有举行各种庆贺新春活动，热闹喜庆气氛洋溢；这些活动均以除旧布新、迎禧接福、拜神祭祖、祈求丰年为主要内容，形式丰富多彩，带有浓郁的各地域特色。

Answer 2

春节是个亲人团聚的节日，这一点和西方的圣诞节很相似。离家的孩子这时要不远千里回到父母家里。真正过年的前一夜叫“除夕”，又叫“团圆夜”，“团年”。团圆夜，家家户户阖家欢聚，叙旧话新，互相祝贺鼓励。我国北方地区在此时有吃饺子的习俗，饺子的作法是先和面，“和”字就是“合”；饺子的饺和“交”谐音，“合”和“交”有相聚之意，又取“更岁交子”之意。所以用饺子象征团聚了。而南方有吃年糕的习惯，象征生活步步高。守岁达旦，喜贴春联，敲锣打鼓，张灯结彩，送旧迎新的活动热闹非凡

The Chinese New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts from the Begining of Spring.Its origin is too old to be traced.
One legend goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite. People were very scared.It is said that people have to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year's end, because red is the color the beast feared the most.
From then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of Nian is carried on from generation to generation.
