中国人过不过感恩节? Does China have Thanksgiving?
Manage episode 385597985 series 2992684
Hello everyone! In today's episode, I answer the question: Do Chinese people celebrate Thanksgiving? The short answer is no. Thanksgiving is not a holiday in China. However, China has its own harvest festival: the Mid-Autumn Festival. Though only a handful of countries celebrate "Thanksgiving", a lot of cultures have harvest festivals with a family feast focusing on family reunions and celebrating abundance. Thanks for listening. Scripts and useful expressions below. Email or comment if you have any questions! Have a nice day!
大家好,欢迎收听新一期的5分钟中文!今天这期很短。我是想很简单地回应一个问题。这两天不是美国的感恩节嘛?就有很多美国人问我,说中国有没有感恩节?中国人过不过感恩节?
传统上来说,中国是没有感恩节的。其实,你如果看世界。世界上过感恩节的国家不超过10个。所以感恩节并不是中国传统的节日。既然感恩节不是一个传统的节日,中国也没有美国人的那些感恩节传统。比如说,火鸡在中国就不是很常见。还有美国的stuffings,美国的一些casserole。当然了,在美国不同地方也有不同的感恩节传统。
那话说回来,中国人有没有庆祝类似节日的传统呢?我觉得如果非要说,那中国的中秋节算是一个收获的节日。中国人在中秋节庆祝家庭的团圆,庆祝丰收。就好像美国在几百年前用一个大餐来庆祝丰收。后来感恩节的日期定下来,然后成了美国的传统。
不过我觉得不管是哪个国家的harvest festival, 就是丰收的节日,都会有一个大餐。中国人在中秋节也会有很丰盛的食物。像美国在感恩节大家都会吃各种苹果派呀、南瓜派、火鸡、火腿、土豆泥、casseroles,、stuffings、这些都很好吃!
那关于中国人过不过感恩节,就跟大家聊到这里。简单地说,中国人是不过的。但是我觉得世界上很多文化都有这种感谢丰收,感恩生活的节日。那如果你过感恩节的话,在这里祝你节日快乐!感谢您的收听,我们下期再见!
