the origin of chinese new year
chinese new year, pronounced in chinese as "xin nian", always falls on the date of marking the beginning of the spring and thus it is also called the "spring festival". "xin" means "new" and "nian" means "year". there are many stories told about the origin of "nian", which actually is a name of animals.
the old story says that the beast "nian" with a very big mouth was so fierce and could swallow many people in one single bite. people were very scared. an old man offered to subdue "nian" and said to "nian": "i hear that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents?" so "nian" swallowed many of the other beasts that hurt people and their domestic animals. the old man turned out to be an immortal god and riding the beast "nian" flied to the heaven. now that "nian" is gone and other beasts were also scared into forests, people began to enjoy their peaceful life. before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year's end to scare away "nian" in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.
from there on, the term "guo nian" has the meaning of "pass-over" or "survive" the "nian". by tradition, chinese businesses had to pay off all debts by the year-end and thus if they could get it over, it is worth for the celebration of the new year.
today people still put up red paper and firing firecrackers as way of celebration. "guo nian" becomes a tradition of celebration for thousand of years.
农历新年的起源
中国新年,在中国是“新年”,总是落在标志着春天的开始日期,因此它也被称为“春节”。“鑫”意味着“新”和“年”是指“年”。有许多故事关于“年”的起源,这实际上是一个动物的名字。
古老的故事说,野兽与一个非常大的嘴“年”是如此激烈,可以在一个咬吞下很多人。人们很害怕。一个老人提供制服“年”和“年”说:“我听说你很有能力,但你能吞下其他野兽而不是绝不是你值得的人的对手?“所以”年“吞下的许多其他野兽伤害人们和他们的家畜。老人原来是一个不朽的神,骑着怪兽“年”飞到天堂。现在,“年”兽消失了也害怕进森林,人们开始享受平静的生活。老人离开前,他告诉人们用红色的纸来装饰门窗在每年年底吓跑“年”,以防它偷偷溜回来,因为红色是野兽最担心的。
从那里,“过年”一词的意思是“清醒”或“生存”“年”。按照传统,中国企业必须偿还所有债务的年终,因此如果他们能把它结束了,值得庆祝的新年。
今天人们仍然把红纸,放鞭炮庆祝的方式。“过年”变成了几千年来的传统庆祝活动。
