清明節 用英語怎麼說

清明節 用英語怎麼說？臨近清明節咯，我們學習英語的小夥伴，你知道“清明節”用英語怎麼說嗎？下面小編帶大家來認識一下英語的清“明節”

清明節

“清明節”又稱踏青節、寒食節、祭祖節，清明節是傳統的重大春祭節日，清明節與春節、端午節、中秋節並稱爲中國四大傳統節日。清明節期間，掃墓祭祖與踏青郊遊是清明節的兩大禮俗主題，這兩大傳統禮俗主題在中國自古傳承，至今不輟。

除了中國，世界上還有一些國家和地區也過清明節，比如越南、韓國、柬埔寨、馬來西亞、新加坡等。2006年5月20日，中華人民共和國文化部申報的清明節經國務院批准列入第一批國家級非物質文化遺產名錄。

ORIGIN 起源

Qing Ming is popularly associated with Jie Zitui, who lived in Shanxi province in 600 B.C. Legend has it that Jie saved his starving lord's life by serving a piece of his own leg. When the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small principality, he invited his faithful follower to join him. However, Jie declined his invitation, preferring to lead a hermit's life with his mother in the mountains.

談到清明節，有點歷史知識的人，都會聯想到歷史人物介子推。據歷史記載，在兩千多年以前的春秋時代，晉國公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艱苦，跟隨他的介子推不惜從自己的腿上割下一塊肉讓他充飢。後來，重耳回到晉國，作了國君（即晉文公，春秋五霸之一），大肆封賞所有跟隨他流亡在外的隨從，惟獨介子推拒絕接受封賞，他帶了母親隱居綿山。

Believing that he could force Jie out by burning the mountain, the lord ordered his men to set the forest on fire. To his consternation, Jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. To commemorate Jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home to be put out on the anniversary of Jie's death. Thus began the "cold food feast", a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit.

晉文公無計可施，只好放火燒山，他想，介子推孝順母親，一定會帶着老母出來。誰知這場大火卻把介子推母子燒死了。爲了紀念介子推，晉文公下令每年的這一天，禁止生火，家家戶戶只能吃生冷的食物，這就是寒食節的來源。

The "cold food" festival occurs on the eve of Qing Ming and is often considered as part of the Qing Ming festival. As time passes, the Qing Ming festival replaced the "cold food" festival. Whatever practice is observed，the basic observation of Qing Ming is to remember one's elders by making a special effort to visit their graves, ashes or ancestral tablets. To make the visit even more meaningful, some time should be spent to remind the younger members of the family of the lives and contributions of their ancestors, and the story of Jie Zitui who chose death over capitulation.

寒食節是在清明節的前一天，古人常把寒食節的活動延續到清明，久而久之，清明取代了寒食節。拜介子推的習俗也變成了清明掃墓的習俗了。無論以何種形式紀念，爲了使紀念祖先的儀式更有意義，我們應該讓年輕一代的家庭成員瞭解先人過去的奮鬥歷史，當然，還要學習介子推寧死不屈的氣節。

“清明節”怎麼翻譯，更準確？

想知道“清明節”怎麼翻譯，就需要知道“清明”的具體含義是指什麼哦~我們一起來看看吧！

1.側重天氣“清明”

Clear and Bright

The Pure Brightness Day

其實，清明節的“清”和“明”是用來描述天氣的，意思是“清潔”和“明亮”。

所以，從節氣的角度，清明節可以翻譯爲：Clear and Bright，還可以把清明節翻譯爲：The Pure Brightness Day，也是取其“清淨、明亮”之意。

作爲二十四節氣（the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms）中的一個，“清明”的特別就表現在，它是唯一一個和傳統節日“清明節”並存的節氣。

Of all the 24 solar terms, Clear and Bright is the only one whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival, Qingming Day.

（“清明”既是節氣，又是節日）

清明節的日期是這麼算的：春分後的第15天，也就是4月4日或5日。這段時間，溫度會上升，雨水會增多，適合耕作播種。

It is the 15th day after the Spring Equinox, either 4 or 5 April in a given year.

2.側重“掃墓祭祖”

Tomb Sweeping Day

All Souls' Day

早在唐朝，我們就有祭祖（worshiping ancestors）傳統。祭祖時，我們會掃墓、上供品、紙錢等，以示敬意。

所以，清明節又被翻譯爲“掃墓日”

——Tomb Sweeping Day

這個說法也是目前最常見的一種

外國人一聽大概也能明白這個節日的含義。
