1.春节用英语怎么写春节Spring Festival
1、什么是春节:
春节是指汉字文化圈传统上的农历新年,俗称“年节”,传统名称为新年、大年、新岁,但口头上又称度岁、庆新岁、过年 。[1] 中国人过春节已有4000多年的历史 。在现代,人们把春节定于农历正月初一,但一般至少要到正月十五(上元节)新年才算结束,在民间,传统意义上的春节是指从腊月的腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶,一直到正月十九 。
在春节期间,中国的汉族和一些少数民族都要举行各种庆祝活动 。这些活动均以祭祀祖神、祭奠祖先、除旧布新、迎禧接福、祈求丰年为主要内容,形式丰富多彩,带有浓郁的各民族特色 。受到中华文化的影响,属于汉字文化圈的一些国家和民族也有庆祝春节的习俗 。人们在春节这一天都尽可能地回到家里和亲人团聚,表达对未来一年的热切期盼和对新一年生活的美好祝福 。
2、春节英文的由来:
The Chinese New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts from the Begining of Spring (the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of Nature). Its origin is too old to be traced. Several explanations are hanging around. All agree, however, that the word Nian, which in modern Chinese solely means "year", was originally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.
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. One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue Nian. To Nian he said, "I hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents?" So, it did swallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.
3、例句:

2.春节用英语怎么说spring festval 春节 春节是中国最富有特色的传统节日 。
它标志农历旧的一年结束 。新的一年已经开始 。
人们将告别寒冷单调的冬季,迎接生机盎然的春天 。春节原名“元旦”,隋代杜台卿在《五烛宝典》中说:“正月为端月,其一日为元日,亦云正朝,亦云元朔 。”
“元”的本意为“头”,后引申为“开始”,因为这一天是一年的头一天,春季的头一天,正月的头一天,所以称为“三元”;因为这一天还是岁之朝,月之朝,日之朝,所以又称“三朝”;又因为它是第一个朔日,所以又称“元朔” 。宋吴自牧在《梦梁录》中解释:“正月朔日,谓之元旦” 。
《说文解字》中对“旦”字的解释为“从日见一上,一,地也 。”表示太阳刚刚从地平线上升起,就是早晨的意思 。
因为它分别表示一年的第一个早晨,正月的第一个早晨,所以称“元旦”和“正旦” 。除上述称谓外,春节还称“开年”、“开岁”、“芳岁”、“华岁”等,在诸多称谓中以称“元旦”最普遍,时间最长久 。
因各朝代历法不同,元旦所在的季节也不同 。中国古代的历法是阴阳合历,需同时考虑到太阳和月亮的位置,故确定元旦时,需首先确定它在某个季节,然后再选定与这个季节相近的朔月作为元旦 。
由于一岁与12个阴历并行不相等,相差约11天,故每隔3年需设置一个闰月来调整季节 。中国上古的天文学家曾想出一个简便的方法来判断月序与季节的关系,这就是以傍晚时斗柄的指向定月序,称之为十二月建 。
