年獸傳說
戈戈:
It is the time to celebrate the New Year.
要過新年咯。
MM:
I know the New Year is read as 'Nian' in chinese.
我知道新年用中文讀“Nian”。
戈戈:
You are right, but today "Celebrate the New Year" may come from "Survive the Nian".
對的,不過現在的“慶祝新年”可能來源於“倖免於年”。
MM:
Is there some historical origins?
有什麼歷史淵源嗎?
戈戈:
The word "Nian" was originally the name of a monster that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.
“年”原本是一種在新年前夜開始出來捕食人類的怪獸。
MM:
Why are you putting up red paper and firing fire-crackers to celebrate it?
為什麼還要貼紅紙,放鞭炮來慶祝新年到來呢?
戈戈:
An old man subdued Nian and told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors to scare away Nian.
有個老人降服了年,並且告訴人們用紅色的紙來裝飾門窗可以嚇跑年。
MM:
So that was it!
是這樣啊!
戈戈:
People today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement of the celebration.
現在人們早就忘了為什麼這樣,只知道這種顏色,這種聲音能增添他們過年的興奮。
MM:
It doesn't matter. Red, with warm feeling, possesses the actions of making people excited and joyful.
沒關係,反正紅色本來就有溫暖的感覺,有讓人興奮、喜樂的功效。
