元宵节祝福语。今天是“元宵节”（the Lantern Festival），小编在此先祝大家元宵节快乐！

用英语讲中国故事
My favourite festival is the Lantern Festival. This festival is very important to the Chinese people. It is on the 15th day of the Chinese New Year. We often eat yuanxiao or tangyuan, go out to enjoy the moon and watch lanterns that day. I like watching lanterns and guessing lantern riddles. In the evening, people light up the lanterns. We can see different shapes of colourful lanterns. Some people write riddles on the lanterns. If we know the answer, we can take the lantern to its owner. If the answer is correct, there is a gift for the winner. I love this festival because it is very interesting.
正月十五的晚上，人们会纷纷走上街头来闹元宵：或放焰火，或猜灯谜，或看舞狮……到处都是欢声笑语！在古人的眼中，狮子为百兽之尊，代表着威严与勇猛。古人将它作为勇敢和力量的象征，认为通过舞狮能驱邪镇妖、保佑平安。当然，有些地方还有踩高跷的习俗。
下面我们先来看看这些传统习俗用英文怎么表达。
01 赏花灯
Viewing lanterns
It is tradition that people hang lanterns everywhere, in their house or in the streets. The lanterns depict various characters, like flying birds, leaping fishes, and shining fireworks, showing an atmosphere of joy. People will come out and appreciate the beautiful scene.

Eating yuanxiao
Eating yuanxiao is another Lantern Festival tradition. Yuanxiao is made of glutinous rice, either solid or stuffed. The stuffing includes bean paste, sugar, hawthorn, various kinds of fruit and so on. It can be boiled, fried or steamed and fried.
吃元宵是元宵节的另一传统习俗。元宵是用糯米做的，可以是糯米实心的，也可以夹馅儿。元宵的馅料有很多种，例如豆沙、糖心、山楂馅以及各种水果馅等。烹调方式也多样，开水煮、油炸蒸均可。
In the Lantern Festival, people from north part of China eat yuanxiao; while those from south part of China eat tangyuan.
元宵节这天，中国北方人吃元宵，南方人吃汤圆。

Guessing lantern riddles
Riddles written on the lanterns can inspire wisdom and cater to the festival atmosphere, so many people like it very much. Guessing the answers to lantern riddles gradually became an indispensable part of the Lantern Festival.
灯谜可以激发人们的智慧，又烘托节日氛围，深受民众喜爱。猜灯谜渐渐成为元宵节不可缺少的一部分。
04 舞狮子
Lion dances
The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times, people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect people and their livestock. The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar, such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.
舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的古老习俗。在古代，人们把狮子作为勇气和力量的象征，认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延续至今，并且每逢佳节或庆典，如元宵节都会以舞狮子来祈求好运。
05 舞龙灯
Dragon dance
Dragon dance is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance it is most often seen in festival celebration. The dance is performed by a team of dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon.
舞龙灯是中国独具特色的民俗活动。与舞狮子一样，每逢佳节，人们都要耍龙灯。表演者由数十人组成，每人用一杆间隔支撑起一条长龙。
Chinese dragons are a symbol of China, and they are believed to bring good luck to people, therefore the longer the dragon in the dance, the more luck it will bring to the community.
龙是中国的象征，相传龙能够带来吉祥和好运。耍的龙灯越长，就越能给当地人民带来好运。因此，每逢春节、元宵节，人们都会举行耍龙灯的活动。
