美国情人节英文介绍
A. 情人节的来历(英文)
There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentine's Day. Some experts state that it originated from St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on February 14, 269 A.D., the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries.
关于情人节的起源有许多种说法。有关人士认为情人节是一个名叫桑特 瓦伦丁的人士发起的。他是罗马人,因为拒绝放弃基督教而于公元前269年2月14日惨遭杀害,这一天也正好是全城盛行彩票抽奖的日子。
Legend also says that St. Valentine left a farewell note for the jailer's daughter, who had become his friend, and signed it "From Your Valentine". Other aspects of the story say that Saint Valentine served as a priest at the temple ring the reign of Emperor Claudius. Claudius then had Valentine jailed for defying him. In 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honour St. Valentine.
而另外一种说法更具有传奇色彩,相传桑特 瓦伦丁曾留下一本日记给了狱卒的女儿,署名为“你的情人”,据说这名狱卒的女儿就是桑特 瓦伦丁的情人。还有其它的说法也颇为有趣。比如说有人认为在克劳迪亚斯君王统治时期,桑特 瓦仑丁曾经是一名神父,因为公然挑战克劳迪亚斯君王的权威身陷囹圄。所以公元前496年罗马教皇格莱西亚斯特意将2月14日作为一个特别的日子以纪念桑特 瓦伦丁。
Graally, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers. There was often a social gathering or a ball.
此后2月14日就成为了一个具有特殊意义的日子。在这天人们向自己心仪的人传递信息以示爱意。而理所当然的桑特 瓦仑丁也就成为了为恋爱中的男女们牵线搭桥的人。在2月14日这天人们会特意做诗或者用一些小礼物送给自己心爱的人。而且人们还会组织各种各样的聚会来庆祝这个特殊的节日。
In the United States, Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards. Commercial valentines were introced in the 1800's and now the date is very commercialised. The town of Loveland, Colorado, does a large post office business around February 14. The spirit of good continues as valentines are sent out with sentimental verses and children exchange valentine cards at school.
艾瑟 霍兰德小姐是美国第一位因为发送情人节卡片而受到荣誉奖励的人。早在19世纪初情人节就已处露商业化的端倪。而如今情人节已经完全被商业化了。 比如每当每年2月14日来临的时候,一些城镇如罗夫兰、克罗拉多等,这里的人们都要派送大量的为情人节特备的卡片。 而在这天人们往往吟歌做诗并且把这些写入卡片中送个自己喜欢的人以表达自己的爱意。而在学校里孩子门也喜欢互增贺卡来度过这个特殊的节日。久而久之就形成了一种习俗并且延续至今天。

英国:从17世纪开始,情人节变得普遍。
日本:女性送巧克力给她喜欢的男性,而男性则在一个月后的白色情人节(ホワイトデー,White Day)回礼表衷肠,这是日本商人于1977年炒作的结果。《读卖新闻》解释说:“礼物指定是白巧克力,原因是避免吝啬的男子把女友送赠的巧克力收藏起来,然后又将其原封不动地作为回礼。”

J. 情人节英文翻译
英文:Valentine‘s Day。
每年的2月14日是西方国家传统的情人节。
传说以前在英国,所有雀回鸟都会在2月14日日交配答求偶,如黑鸟、山鹑等,皆在2月间求偶。所以,人类也认为每年的2月14日是春天万物初生的佳日,代表着青春生命的开始,也仿效雀鸟于每年的2月14日选伴侣。
中国的情人节是七夕。
“七夕”最早来源于人们对自然天象的崇拜,早在远古时代,人们就对天文星象有认识,并将天空星区与地理区域相互对应。
关于牛郎织女的天文星空区域对应地上地域分野,文字记载见于汉代文献,《汉书·地理志》:“粤(越)地,牵牛(牛郎)、婺女(织女)之分野也,今苍梧、郁林、合浦、交趾、九真、南海、日南皆粤分也”。文献记载了牛郎织女星区对应岭南地域分野。
“七夕”为传统意义上的七姐诞,因拜祭“七姐”活动在七月七日晩上举行,故名“七夕”。拜七姐,祈福许愿、乞求巧艺、坐看牵牛织女星、祈祷姻缘、储七夕水等,是七夕的传统习俗。
经历史发展,七夕被赋予了“牛郎织女”的美丽爱情传说,因被赋予了与爱情有关的内涵,使其成为了象征爱情的节日,从而被认为是中国最具浪漫色彩的传统节日,在当代更是产生了“中国情人节”的文化含义。
