The Lunar New Year🧨春节习俗

1. The Lunar New Year has typically been called the Chinese New Year. That's not wrong and it's not right. There's a whole another group of Asian countries that also celebrate based on the lunar calendar. 2. (The Lion Dance) They're really warding off the evil spirits, which is the intention of the dance, to get rid of all the evil things that have happened in the year before and to welcome boldly the new year. 3. (Red Envelope) They're not meant to be a lot of money. It sort of helps people say, “You are part of my life.” If you do present a red envelope, make sure you do it with two hands and that you use new bills because you don't wanna put a ratty five dollar bill in a red envelope. That would not bea good idea. 4. Red is supposed to be prosperity, health, so if you ever went to a Chinese New Year dinner, and you were wearing white or black, you should just go home and change. A lot of the celebratory components center on food, a lot of food. 5. (Lantern Festival) That's at the end of the celebration. It also closes off the Lunar New Year celebration. Understanding a little bit more of the sources of the richculture that we have as a country, that's what really makes this country so incredible. It's a tradition that we get to celebrate here, even though most people who celebrate are halfway around the world. And to share it and share boldly I think is very, very special.  农历新年通常被称为中国新年。这没有错，也不全对。还有一大批亚洲国家也是根据农历来庆祝的。 (舞狮）他们真的是在辟邪，这也是舞狮的本意，把上一年发生的恶事都赶走，大胆地迎接新的一年。 (红包）本意不是要有很多钱。这算是帮助人们说：“你是我生活的一部分”。如果你真的要送红包，一定要用两只手去递红包，而且要用新钞票，因为你不想把一张破旧的五元钞票放在红包里。这不是一个好主意。 红色是繁荣、健康的意思，所以如果你去参加过年夜饭，而你穿的是白色或黑色的衣服，你应该回家去换。很多庆祝的元素都集中在食物上，很多食物。 (元宵节)这是这场庆祝最后的活动。也为春节庆祝活动画上了句号。多了解一下我们这个国家丰富文化的来源，这才是这个国家真正不可思议的地方。这是一个传统，我们可以在这里庆祝，尽管大多数庆祝的人都在世界的另一端。而分享它并大胆地分享，我认为是非常非常特别的。
