“年夜饭”用英语怎么说？

“年夜饭”的英文可以这样表达：Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner。年夜饭又叫“团圆饭”，所以还可以用：Reunion Dinner表达。

“春晚”的英文可以这样表达：Spring Festival Gala或者Chinese New Year Gala。随着春晚影响力度的增大，许多外媒直接用拼音表示春晚：Chunwan。

放烟火

Fireworks are always set off in festivals in China, especially on New Year's Eve. Fireworks were an army to get rid of the evil-Nian. That's why Chuxi came into being.

在重要的节日里放烟火是中国人的习俗，除夕夜尤其如此。烟火是赶跑怪兽“年”的武器，这也是除夕的来历。（“年”是传说里的怪兽，它害怕烟火和红色的春联。所以人们赶走“年”的这一天也被称为“过年”或“除夕”）。
