七夕的美語
㈠ 七夕的英文介紹
Double Seventh Festival
The Double Seventh Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, is a traditional festival full of romance. It often goes into August in the Gregorian calendar
This festival is in mid-summer when the weather is warm and the grass and trees reveal their luxurious greens. At night when the sky is dotted with stars, and people can see the Milky Way spanning from the north to the south. On each bank of it is a bright star, which see each other from afar. They are the Cowherd and Weaver Maid, and about them there is a beautiful love story passed down from generation to generation.
Long, long ago, there was an honest and kind-hearted fellow named Niu Lang (Cowhand). His parents died when he was a child. Later he was driven out of his home by his sister-in-law. So he lived by himself herding cattle and farming. One day, a fairy from heaven Zhi Nu (Weaver Maid) fell in love with him and came down secretly to earth and married him. The cowhand farmed in the field and the Weaver Maid wove at home. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, the God of Heaven soon found out the fact and ordered the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens to bring the Weaver Maid back.
With the help of celestial cattle, the Cowhand flew to heaven with his son and daughter. At the time when he was about to catch up with his wife, the Queen Mother took off one of her gold hairpins and made a stroke. One billowy river appeared in front of the Cowhand. The Cowhand and Weaver Maid were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyalty to love touched magpies, so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).
Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival, while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquet of Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) dynasties, special articles for the "Qi Xi" were seen being sold on markets in the capital. The bustling markets demonstrated the significance of the festival.
Today some traditional customs are still observed in rural areas of China, but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However, the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maid has taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years, in particular, urban youths have celebrated it as Valentine's Day in China. As a result, owners of flower shops, bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.

MILKY WAY
According to legend the seventh Princess of Heaven fell in love with a poor herdsman.
She stole away to marry him and lived happily for a time as a weaver.
When her mother sent soldiers to fetch her daughter home they were forced to retreat before the herdsman's strength.
Seeing her daughter's husband in swift pursuit, The princess' mother dropped a silver pin, creating a silver stream to separate the lovers forever.
The young princess' love finally moved her father to allow her an annual reunion with her husband.
On the appointed day, the princess would cross the silver stream with an escort of black birds.
If it should rain on that night, it is said to be the princess' tears.
The Milky Way is the silver stream, which can be seen on the lunar calendar's seventh day of the seventh month with young lovers, the Vega and Altair stars, on either side.

Qixi Festival
㈥ 關於七夕的英語
七夕,這個古老的節日近幾年再度受到熱捧,星空之上的愛情故事看來的確比大洋彼岸的情人節更加讓我們心動~如何用英語介紹這個美麗的傳說呢?一起來學學:能飛英語
Chinese Valentine's Day falls on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. In China, this day is also known as "The Begging Festival".英語聽力軟體
陰歷7月7日是中國的情人節——七夕。在中國,七夕又稱「乞巧節」。——七夕節的不同英文名稱翻譯
The seventh daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, the Weaving Maid, and an orphaned cowherd were separated by the Emperor; the girl was forced to move to the star Vega and the cowherd, to the star Altair.
They were only allowed to meet on the magpie bridge over the Milky Way once a year on the day of seventh day of seventh lunar month - Chinese Valentine's Day.
七夕的來歷,是因為玉皇大帝的女兒織女愛上了窮小子牛郎,兩人被強行分開,一年之中,只有七夕當晚才能在鵲橋上見面。
七夕關鍵詞:英語聽寫
lunar calendar:陰歷,現在通行的陽歷是solar calendar。lunar表示「月亮的」,英文名Luna其實是月亮女神的名字,有取這個名字的女生是不是覺得很開心呢?
cowherd:放牛人,也即牛郎;同樣的一個詞是shepherd,羊倌,兩個詞都有一個-herd後綴,herd有「放牧人」的意思,不過通常都是作為後綴來構成「XX牧人」的詞。
magpie:喜鵲,幫助牛郎織女見面的大功臣哦。雖然在七夕的傳說中,喜鵲給情人們帶來幸福,但是magpie這個詞卻有一個貶義的用法,就是用來形容話多的人:She chatters like a magpie. 她說起話來就沒個完。
七夕「乞巧」的風俗由來已久,年輕女孩子們在這一天乞求的,不僅僅是巧奪天工的好手藝,還會乞求一段美好姻緣。似乎是TVB劇中經常出現七夕之夜女子祈求姻緣的橋段~不知道今年七夕,有多少人會在星空之下默默祈禱呢?
On that night, unmarried girls prayed to the Weaving Maid star for the special gift. When the star Vega was high up in the sky, girls performed a small test by placing a needle on the water's surface: If the needle did not sink, the girl was considered to be ready to find a husband. Once a year, on this day, girls could wish for anything their hearts desired.
七夕之夜,未婚女子通常會向織女星乞巧,也會乞求姻緣。她們將一根針放在水面上,倘若針不下沉的話,她們就能得償所願。據說這一晚女孩子們能祈求任何心願成真。
這里「乞巧」的這個「乞」,我們可以說beg,也可以用plead這個詞,plead to be endowed with perfect sewing skills. 貌似這兩個詞都和浪漫氣氛不符哦,plead其實更常見於法庭上,律師為某人辯護,就是plead one's case;而那句我們耳熟能詳的「不認罪」,則是plead not guilty,反之「認罪」就是plead guilty——注意這里的用法,比較特殊哦,是在動詞plead後面直接加形容詞guilty——法官就會經常問這句話:Do you plead guilty or not guilty?你可認罪?(好有包大人的風范啊~)
也有一個更常見的情況,就是被告人plead insanity,以精神失常為借口,試圖減輕刑罰。
回到七夕乞巧的風俗吧,乞巧是為了精進自己的女紅手藝,女紅(注意啊注意啊,這里的「紅」讀音是「工」,不要讀錯了哦)也就是針線活,用英語說就是doing needlework。印象中女紅活兒就是刺綉(embroider)吧,不知道現在還有多少女孩子會刺綉活兒呢?似乎大家都更prefer簡單易學的十字綉 (cross-stitch)了。那麼,學十字綉的話,也是需要乞一下巧的吧……
至於祈求姻緣,這個恐怕還是要看緣分哦,如果兩個人是predestined to be together,那麼是無論如何都會相遇並相愛的吧。在這里祝天下有情人終成眷屬吧!(All shall be well, and Jack shall have Jill!)

㈧ 中國的七夕節的英文是什麼
Double Seventh Festival。
七夕節,又稱七巧節、七姐節、女兒節、乞巧節、七娘會、巧夕、牛公牛婆日、雙七等,是中國民間的傳統節日,為傳統意義上的七姐誕。因拜祭「七姐」活動在七月七晩上舉行,故名「七夕」。拜七姐,祈福許願、乞求巧藝、坐看牽牛織女星、祈禱姻緣、儲七夕水等,是七夕的傳統習俗。
經歷史發展,七夕被賦予了「牛郎織女」的美麗愛情傳說,因被賦予了與愛情有關的內涵,使其成為了象徵愛情的節日,從而被認為是中國最具浪漫色彩的傳統節日,在當代更是產生了「中國情人節」的文化含義。
(8)七夕的美語擴展閱讀:
「七夕」的由來:
「七夕」最早來源於人們對自然的崇拜。從歷史文獻上看,至少在三四千年前,隨著人們對天文的認識和紡織技術的產生,有關牽牛星織女星的記載就有了。
人們對星星的崇拜遠不止是牽牛星和織女星,他們認為東西南北各有七顆代表方位的星星,合稱二十八宿,其中以北斗七星最亮,可供夜間辨別方向。
北斗七星的第一顆星叫魁星,又稱魁首。後來,有了科舉制度,中狀元叫「大魁天下士」,讀書人把七夕叫「魁星節」,又稱「曬書節」,保持了最早七夕來源於星宿崇拜的痕跡。
