元旦节用英语怎么写 元旦节英文：New Year's Day 【元旦节的由来】 In ancient China, Yuan Dan was not on January 1st, as regulated in the Gregorian calendar. The date of Yuan Dan had been changed many times from the 1st of the 12th lunar month in Yin Dynasty to the 1st of the 1st lunar month in Han Dynasty. When Sun Yat-sen took office as the temporary President in Nanjing at the beginning of January of 1912, he set the 1st of the 1st lunar month as the Spring Festival while the 1st of January was set as the New Year, which was also called Yuan Dan. After liberation, the Central Government of China issued a National Festival and Memorial Day Holiday that set January 1st as Yuan Dan, which was a one-day holiday for the whole country. In order to distinguish the two New Years of both the lunar calendar and solar calendar, and as the "spring beginning" of the Lunar Calendar was always around the lunar New Year, the 1st of the 1st lunar month was called the Spring Festival. Yuan means the beginning, the first. The beginning of a number is Yuan. Dan, which is a pictographic character in the Chinese language, means the day rises from the horizon, symbolizing the beginning of a day. When Yuan and Dan are combined, it means the first day of a New Year. Yuan Dan is also called Three Yuan, the beginning of a year, the beginning of a month and the beginning of an hour. The word Yuan Dan was first used during the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns era. 【各国元旦节的习俗】 埃及 埃及是文明古国，公元前40年，埃及人就能观察星象了，他们发现天狼星和太阳一同升起，尼罗河水立时上涨。埃及把尼罗河涨水的这一天作为新年的开始，称为“涨水新年”。埃及的克鲁特人迎接新年，在门口放一张桌子，七八只碟子供着大豆、扁豆、紫苜蓿和小麦的颗粒，还有好些绿色植物的小芽，这象征丰裕。献给神的东西越多，新年的收成就越多。埃及的新年在秋天，因埃及的农业生产是从秋季开始的。 印度 印度从每年10月31日起为新年共5天，第四天为元旦。新年第一天，谁也不许对人生气，更不准发脾气。印度有的地区，元旦早上，家家户户哭声不断，人人脸上涕泪横流，他们以岁月易逝、人生苦短，用哭来迎新年，是对人生的慨叹。有些地区的人们以禁食一天一夜来迎接新的一年，由元旦凌晨开始直到午夜为止。 由于这种怪异的习俗，印度的元旦被人称为“痛哭元旦”、“禁食元旦”。印度人在过年的前5天，各地都要演出印度史诗《罗摩衍那》，(意为罗摩的游行)，扮演史诗中的英雄与纸扎巨人“作战”，“英雄”引发点着火的箭，纸扎巨人便在观众的欢呼声中着火烧毁，除夕前，家家户户门前都张贴上各种精美图画。 元旦早上，人们提着精制的小灯，拿着红粉包，出门向老人和亲友拜年。见面道喜后，就互相将红粉涂在对方的额上，表示吉祥如意，抬头见喜。年青人把红墨水装进水枪里，射到亲友身上，称为“洒红”，表示吉祥如意。 印度青年喜欢在过新年时不管熟悉与否，见面徒手格斗。围观者叫好助威风，往往成为姑娘追求的对象。印度中部土著民族勃希勒人，为庆祝新年，在游戏场中竖立一根圆滑粗大的木杆，杆顶有一只盛着礼品的小袋，姑娘们手持禾竹竿竭力阻挠向杆上爬去的小伙卫子，小伙子们则在杆下围成一圈，努力防御姑娘们对爬杆者的攻击，直到爬竿者夺得小袋取得胜利为止。 朝鲜 朝鲜和我们中国一样，在新年也有贴窗花、桃符的习俗。朝鲜人在新年时，家家户户贴对联和年画。有的人家在门上贴上寿星或仙女的画像，祈求上天保佑，驱走鬼魅，赐给幸福。 元旦黎明，人们把一些钞票塞进了除夕预先扎好的.稻草人中，扔到十字路口，表示送走邪恶，迎接吉祥福星。黄昏，人们又将全家人一年中脱落的头发烧掉，祝愿家人四季平安。新春佳节，朝鲜的妇女穿戴一新。 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/3424dca2f5ec4afe04a1b0717fd5360cbb1a8d9e.html
