西方传统节日英文介绍，中英对照节日简介 了解西方文化的时候，无论是通过网络或者书籍，我们都习惯看中文译本。其实一门语言一旦被翻译，很多意思都会产生偏差，真正想了解一个东西，最好是通过原文来理解。西方节日在中国传播发展，关于西方节日的介绍大家有没有了解呢？下面，一起来看看中英文对照版本的西方节日介绍，是不是跟你所知道的一样呢？ 1、复活节Easter Easter is a time of springtime festivals. In Christian countries Easter is celebrated as the religious holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the son of God. But the celebrations of Easter have many customs and legends that are pagan in origin and have nothing to do with Christianity. Traditions associated with the festival survive in the Easter rabbit, a symbol of fertility, and in colored Easter eggs, originally painted with bright colors to represent the sunlight of spring, and used in Easter-egg rolling contests or given as gifts. 复活节是春季的节日。在信基督教的国家里，复活节是为纪念基督耶稣的复活而举行的宗教节日。但是复活节有许多习俗和传说的由来都是非宗教的，它们与基督教没有任何关系。与节日密切联系的一些传统有象复活节的野兔，它是作为繁殖生长的象征；还有复活节的彩蛋。最先是被绘以鲜亮的颜色来代表春天的阳光。这些彩蛋还可以用来玩滚彩蛋游戏比赛，或作为小礼物送人。 2、感恩节Thanksgiving The first American Thanksgiving was celebrated in 1621, to commemorate the harvest reaped by the Plymouth Colony after a harsh winter. In that year Governor William Bradford proclaimed a day of thanksgiving. The colonists celebrated it as a traditional English harvest feast, to which they invited the local Wampanoag Indians. Days of thanksgiving were celebrated throughout the colonies after fall harvests. All thirteen colonies did not, however, celebrate Thanksgiving at the same time until October 1777. George Washington was the first president to declare the holiday, in 1789. 第一个美国人庆贺的感恩节在1621年，为了纪念普利茅斯殖民地的人民在经过一个歉收荒芜的冬季后迎来丰收。在那一年，州长William Bradford宣布那天作为感恩节。殖民者把它当成传统的英国丰收节日来庆贺，在当天，他们还邀请当地的印地安的万泊诺亚格人。感恩的节日延续了整个秋季的收获季节，但其他的十三个殖民地没有庆贺这个节日，直到1777年10月。乔治-华盛顿在1789年宣布把它定为节日，他也是第一位宣布感恩节的总统。 3、情人节Valentine's Day The history of Valentine's Day -- and its patron saint -- is shrouded in mystery. But we do know that February has long been a month of romance. St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition. So, who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient
Dear distinguished chief judge; As the defense attorney of my client, I have made many surveys in secret after I took over the case. According to my client and all the information I have inspected about the case, now I have an deep and comprehensive understanding about the case . Therefore , I want to show my opinions to you, and I hope the chief would accept them . . 1. The stolen car was found abandoned three hours after the theft with the engine still warm; at the time the car was found, my client was at the airport to meet the flight of a friend who was flying into town. 2. Lab analysis of muddy shoe prints on the floor mat of the car indicates that the prints came from a size 27 shoe; your client wears a size 25. 3. Lab analysis shows the presence of cigarette smoke in the car, but your client does not smoke. 4. The only eyewitness to the crime, who was 20 meters from the car, said the thief "looked like" your client; yet the eyewitness admitted that at the time of the theft she was not wearing her contact lenses, which had been prescribed for improving distance vision. 5. The car was stolen at about I p.m.; your client testified that he was in a town 400 kilometers away at 11 a.m. 6. In a statement to police, the eyewitness described the thief as tall; your client is short. Because of all the doubtful points , I think it is unfair to found guilty of theft to my client. Moreover, the basic standard of criminal sanction is that taking facts as a basis and laws as the criterion, so I hope the chief judge will give a reasonable judgment to my client finally. That’s all ,thanks.

New Year's Eve is the time for a happy reunion of all family members, when they sit around the table to have a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, talking and laughing, until daybreak, which is called "staying up to see the year out". When the bell tolls midnight on New Year's Eve, people eat dumplings. In ancient times, midnight was called zishi (a period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m.). Dumplings (jiaozi) are eaten because it sounds the same as "change of the year and the day" in Chinese. From the first day of the lunar year, people pay New Year calls on relatives and friends, which is an important custom for the Spring Festival. Setting off firecrackers is the favorite activity of children in the Spring Festival. According to legend, this could drive off evil spirits.

Some families begin to do spring festival shopping and clean their houses after that day. 2、小年 小年又叫“祭灶节”，在农历的12月23或者24。在中国传统中，祭灶节这天，是掌管全家命运的神仙灶神将向玉皇大帝汇报这一家人一年的情况，玉皇大帝根据灶神汇报的情况决定在下一年对这一家的奖励或者惩罚。小年这天，是各家欢送灶王爷上天的日子。 老百姓在这一天做糖瓜，希望灶神可以吃了糖瓜，多为自己家美言几句，让来年更加吉祥幸福。 Kitchen God's Day Kitchen God’s Day falls on the 23rd or 24th of the twelfth month of the lunar year. According to tradition, Kitchen God who in charge of the fate of the whole family goes back to heaven during the spring festival to deliver what the family had done the last year to the Great God.

People usually made sugared melons with malt sugar on that day. We hope Kitchen God will eat sugared melons and put a good word for our family to the Great God, so we’ll be lucky next year. 3、春节 对中国人来说，春节是最重要的节日。除夕这天，全家人要一起吃年夜饭。这是最好的一次家宴，不仅仅因为菜品丰富，更因为这是个全家人相聚的日子。 年夜饭后，我们会一起包饺子，通常会全家人一起看央视春晚。过年的时候，各家都放鞭炮，贴春联。还有一件事也很重要，那就是守岁，就是在旧年的最后一天夜里不睡觉，熬夜迎接新一年的到来的习俗。
