七夕情人节英文介绍

❶ 用英语来描述一下七夕节的来历，要简短，中文也要有

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the only Chinese festival devoted to love in the Lunar calendar.

Unlike St. Valentine's Day in Western countries there is not so much emphasis on giving chocolates, flowers and kisses.

Instead, Chinese girls prepare fruits, melons and incense as offerings to Zhi Nu, the weaving maiden.

Praying to acquire high skills in needlecraft, as well as hoping to find satisfactory husbands.

In the evening, people sit outdoors to observe the stars.

Chinese grannies would say that, if you stand under a grapevine, you can probably overhear what Zhi Nu and Niu Lang are talking about.

农历七月初七是中国唯一的一个关于爱情的节日。

与西方国家的情人节不同的是，人们并没有那么重视巧克力、鲜花和亲吻。

相反，中国女孩准备水果、瓜香作为祭品送给织女，祈祷获得高超的针线工艺，并希望找到令人满意的丈夫。

晚上，人们坐在户外看星星。中国的奶奶们会说，如果你站在葡萄树下，你可能会无意中听到织女和牛郎在说什么。

(1)七夕情人节英文介绍扩展阅读：

七夕（中国传统节日）一般指七夕节，又称七巧节、七姐节、女儿节、乞巧节、七娘会、巧夕、牛公牛婆日、双七等，是中国民间的传统节日，为传统意义上的七姐诞，因拜祭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。

七夕节既是拜七姐节日也是爱情节日，是一个以“牛郎织女”民间传说为载体，以祈福、乞巧、爱情为主题，以女性为主体的综合性节日。七夕的“牛郎织女”来源于人们对自然天象的崇拜，上古时代人们将天文星区与地理区域相互对应，这个对应关系就天文来说，称作“分星”，就地理来说，称作“分野”；牛郎织女星象对应地理分野的记载见于《汉书·地理志》：“粤地，牵牛、婺女之分野也”。

七夕节发源于中国，是世界上最早的爱情节日，在七夕节的众多民俗当中，有些逐渐消失，但还有相当一部分被人们延续了下来。在部分受中华文化影响的亚洲国家如日本、朝鲜半岛、越南等也有庆祝七夕的传统。2006年5月20日，七夕节被中华人民共和国国务院列入第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。

❷ 七夕情人节 的故事 用英语简单叙述一下

The festival has its origin from a romantic tragedy. As the story goes, once there was a cowherd, Niulang, who lived with his elder brother and sister-in-law. But she disliked and abused him, and the boy was forced to leave home with only an old cow for company. The cow, however, was a former god who had violated imperial rules and was sent to earth in bovine form.
One day the cow led Niulang to a lake where fairies took a bath on earth. Among them was Zhinu, the most beautiful fairy and a skilled seamstress.

The two fell in love at first sight and were soon married. They had a son and daughter and their happy life was held up as an example for hundreds of years in China.

Yet in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Deity in Taoism, marriage between a mortal and fairy was strictly forbidden. He sent the empress to fetch Zhinu.

❸ 情人节英文简介

February 14th is a complicated but interesting holiday. First of all, Valentine's Day is not a holiday from work. No one gets a day off[1]. On Valentine's Day people usually send romantic cards to someone they love or want to be loved by. The cards are called "valentines". They are very colourful, often decorated with hearts, flowers or birds, and have humorous or sentimental verses printed inside. The basic message of the verse is always "Be My Valentine", "Be My Sweet Heart" or "Lover". A valentine is anonymous, or sometimes signed "Guess who". The person receiving it has to guess who sent it. This can lead to interesting speculation. And that's half the fun of valentines.
The affectionate message might be carried by a heart - shaped box of chocolate candies, or by a bouquet of flowers tied with red ribbon. But in whatever form, the message is the same - "Will you be my valentine?"
One of the symbols of St. Valentine's Day is the Roman god of Love, called Cupid. Cupid is often printed on the card, who is winged infant without wearing anything, poised to shoot his arrow into a heart. He would shoot an arrow of love into a person's heart to make the person fall in love[2] immedia-tely, maybe with the first person to come along. Sometimes one arrow would go through[3] two hearts, holding them together. So on February 14th not only do we have picture of the Christian St. Valentine but we also have pictures of the non-Christian Cupid, the Roman god of Love.
But it is from the Christians that we get the stories about Valen-tine's Day that most people have come to believe[4]. One story is about a Christian man whose name sounded something like "Valentine." He lived around 250 A.D. At that time the Roman Emperor Claudius refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get married for any reason whatsoever. Christian couples came to Valentine to be married. So Valentine would marry them in a Christian way. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor.One tradition says that he wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out the window of his prison. And the leaves were shaped like a heart.
二月十四日是一个复杂而又有趣的节日。首先，情人节不是一个休假日。没人放假。在情人节这一天，人们爱谁或想得到谁的爱，就可给那个人寄去充满浪漫情趣的卡片。这种卡片叫"情人卡"。情人卡色彩鲜艳，常装饰有心、花或鸟，里面还印有幽默或感伤性的诗句。这些诗句传递的基本信息总是"做我的情人吧"、"做我甜蜜的心上人吧"、"情人"。 情人卡是不署名的，有时也可签上"猜是谁"。收到卡片的人要猜是谁寄的。这样可产生有趣的推测，这也正是情人卡的一些乐趣。
你可以用一个心脏形状的盒子，里面放上巧克力糖，来传递爱的信息，也可用彩带扎上一束鲜花来传递。不管用什么方式，都是一样的--"你愿做我的情人吗？"
情人节的标志之一是罗马爱神--丘比特。丘比特经常被印在卡片上，他是一个赤身裸体、长有翅膀的婴儿，手里拿着箭，摆出一副要射心的姿势。他把爱之箭射中一个人的心，这个人会很快坠入爱河，可能是和他（她）第一个见到的人。有时候，一只箭会射中两颗心，把它们穿在一起。所以在二月十四日，我们不仅有基督的"圣·瓦伦登"的画像，还有非基督的罗马爱神丘比特的画像。
大多数人相信的情人节的故事来源于基督教。其中有个故事提到，有一个基督徒的名字听起来象"瓦伦登"。他大约生活在公元前250年。那时罗马皇帝克劳迪乌斯禁止罗马士兵以任何借口结婚。信奉基督教的夫妇就去找"瓦伦登"主持结婚。"瓦伦登"以基督教方式为他们秘密举行婚礼后来被罗马皇帝发现送进监狱。传说他在叶子上做标记给他朋友传递信息，然后把叶子扔出监狱的窗外。这些叶子的形状是心形的

❹ 情人节的英文节日介绍，简短的，不超过50个单词

Or should we say Happy Night of Sevens! (七夕 or qi xi) or Happy Festival to Plead for Skills! (乞巧节 or qi qiao jie) or Happy Seventh Sister's Birthday! (七姐诞 or qi jie dan) or Happy Night of Skills! (巧夕 or qiao xi)? This is the day Shanghaiist has had circled on our lunar calendar for some time now, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Today we will display our skill at carving melons, we will decorate the horns of our neighborhood oxen with flowers and we will go to the "temple of matchmaker" and pray that we get hooked up. Good times, good times. China Daily fills us in on the holiday's history:

The festival has its origin from a romantic tragedy. As the story goes, once there was a cowherd, Niulang, who lived with his elder brother and sister-in-law. But she disliked and abused him, and the boy was forced to leave home with only an old cow for company. The cow, however, was a former god who had violated imperial rules and was sent to earth in bovine form.
One day the cow led Niulang to a lake where fairies took a bath on earth. Among them was Zhinu, the most beautiful fairy and a skilled seamstress.

The two fell in love at first sight and were soon married. They had a son and daughter and their happy life was held up as an example for hundreds of years in China.

Yet in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Deity in Taoism, marriage between a mortal and fairy was strictly forbidden. He sent the empress to fetch Zhinu.

Too bad this LSD trip didn't take place in Canada. Fairies can marry whoever they want there. Several other variations on the story of qi xi exist. China Daily, it seems, glossed over the juiciest part of the story:

A young cowherd named Niu Lang (牛郎, "the cowherd", the star Altair) happens across seven fairy sisters bathing in a lake. Encouraged by his mischievous companion the ox, he steals their clothes and waits to see what will happen next. The fairy sisters elect the youngest and most beautiful sister Zhi Nü (织女, "the weaver girl", the star Vega) to retrieve their clothing. She does so, but since Niu Lang sees her naked she must agree to his request for marriage.
Note to Shanghaiist: "Ask Bai Ling to marry you ... now!"
