万圣节的由来英文30字

万圣节的来历(英文版)

More than two thousand years ago, the Christian Church in Europe set November 1 as "the day of saints in the world". "Hallow" means saint. It is said that Celtic people living in Ireland, Scotland and other places have moved the festival forward one day since 500 BC, that is, October 31.

They think it's the day when summer officially ends, that is, the beginning of new year and the beginning of severe winter. At that time, it was believed that the dead soul of the old man would return to his former residence on this day to search for the living spirit in the living man, so as to regenerate, and this was the only hope that the man could obtain regeneration after death.

The living people are afraid of the souls of the dead to seize life, so people put out the fire and candle light on this day, so that the souls of the dead can not find the living people, and they dress up as ghosts to scare the souls of the dead away. After that, they will light up the fire and candles again and start a new year's life.

中文:两千多年前,欧洲的基督教会把11月1日定为“天下圣徒之日”。“Hallow”即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年,居住在爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人把这节日往前移了一天,即10月31日。

他们认为该日是夏天正式结束的日子,也就是新年伊始,严酷的冬天开始的一天。那时人们相信,故人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵,借此再生,而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。

而活人则惧怕死人的魂灵来夺生,于是人们就在这一天熄掉炉火、烛光,让死人的魂灵无法找到活人,又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人的魂灵吓走。之后,他们又会把火种、烛光重新燃起,开始新的一年的生活。

Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.

万圣节前夜是在10月31日庆祝的一个节日,根据传统,万圣节前夜的庆祝活动从太阳落山开始。在很久以前,人们相信在万圣节前夜女巫会聚集在一起,鬼魂在四处游荡。现在,大多数人们不再相信有鬼魂和女巫的存在了,但是他们仍然把这些作为万圣节前夜的一部分。

The colors black and orange are also a part of Halloween. Black is a symbol for night and orange is the color of pumpkins. A jack-o’-lantern is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a face carved on one side. Candles are usually placed inside, giving the face a spooky glow.

黑色和橙色仍然是万圣节前夜的一部分,黑色是夜晚的象征,而橙色代表着南瓜。南瓜灯是用雕刻成脸型,中间挖空,再插上蜡烛的南瓜做成的,带来一个毛骨悚然的灼热面孔。

Dressing up in costumes is one of the most popular Halloween customs, especially among children. According to tradition, people would dress up in costumes (wear special clothing, masks or disguises) to frighten the spirits away.
