第一篇：法國(guó)新年習(xí)俗中文版

在法國(guó)，圣誕節(jié)的慶祝時(shí)間和方式各個(gè)地區(qū)也會(huì)有一些區(qū)別。大部分的地方12月25日圣誕節(jié)這一天是最重要的日子，但是在另一些地方圣誕長(zhǎng)假里最為重要的日子是1月6日，主顯節(jié)la fête des Rois，一些地方也叫為la fête de Saint Nicolas(注：在法國(guó)的某些地方主顯節(jié)被定為1月的第一個(gè)星期天)。在法國(guó)東部和北部的一些地方，圣誕長(zhǎng)假?gòu)?2月6日就開(kāi)始了。在里昂12月8日人們會(huì)過(guò)燈火節(jié)(la Fête des lumières)，這一天里昂人會(huì)在窗臺(tái)上放置點(diǎn)亮的蠟燭來(lái)表達(dá)對(duì)圣母瑪麗亞的敬意。

小孩子這天會(huì)把鞋子放到壁爐前，希望圣誕老人 Père No?l(也叫 Papa No?l)會(huì)把里面埋滿禮物。圣誕樹(shù)上糖果、水果、堅(jiān)果和小禮物會(huì)掛上整整一晚。不聽(tīng)話的小孩子這一天可要當(dāng)心了，因?yàn)閷ｉT(mén)打不聽(tīng)話的小孩的屁股的 Père Fouettard這天晚上也會(huì)造訪。現(xiàn)今在平安夜做子時(shí)彌撒(la Messe de Minuit)的人越來(lái)越少了，但它對(duì)于大多數(shù)的家庭來(lái)說(shuō)它仍然是圣誕節(jié)很重要的活動(dòng)。子時(shí)彌撒是紀(jì)念耶穌誕生的活動(dòng)，通常圣誕大餐結(jié)束后人們會(huì)在家或者是一家通宵營(yíng)業(yè)的飯店或是咖啡館慶祝。

法國(guó)人除了最懂搞浪漫之外，也很重家庭溫情，所以圣誕大餐都會(huì)與家人一起分享，而且非常著重氣氛。餐桌上會(huì)鋪上漂亮的桌布，中間擺放鮮花、蠟燭等作裝飾，餐具也會(huì)選上等細(xì)瓷，配上銀制刀叉和水晶杯?；痣u，鵝肉，法式白腸都是圣誕餐桌上的食物，法國(guó)人的圣誕大餐并沒(méi)有太多特別的東西，通常只是把平常吃的東西做得更精致一些。圣誕樹(shù)(sapin de No?l)是圣誕節(jié)的主要裝飾品。圣誕樹(shù)起源于14世紀(jì)的阿爾薩斯(Alsace)，掛滿蘋(píng)果、小紙花、綢帶等裝飾物的圣誕樹(shù)在1837年引入法國(guó)，此后每到圣誕節(jié)，它就會(huì)出現(xiàn)在每一個(gè)家庭、商店和工廠。法國(guó)人還會(huì)在圣誕馬槽上裝飾上漂亮的彩色小人，用來(lái)講述基督誕生的故事。此外，圣誕節(jié)期間家家戶戶的門(mén)上還會(huì)掛上槲寄生，寄寓來(lái)年財(cái)源滾滾。

第二篇：珞巴族新年習(xí)俗

珞巴族新年習(xí)俗

珞巴族年節(jié)是按照自己的歷法推定的。珞巴族的歷法是一種依據(jù)月圓、月缺、月出、月不出以及季節(jié)轉(zhuǎn)換規(guī)律歸納出來(lái)的。每月三十天，以月亮形狀、出沒(méi)時(shí)間來(lái)推算。每天用具體形象作標(biāo)志。月圓月缺變化十二次為一年。一年內(nèi)，再按生物活動(dòng)、自然變化排出月的順序，臺(tái)一月份蛤蟆往江河、水渠中跳；二月份桃花落，“八卜”鳥(niǎo)叫；三月份“金嘎優(yōu)”鳥(niǎo)叫等等。因珞巴族分布地區(qū)不同，節(jié)日的日期和名稱也不一樣。

第三篇：九華山新年習(xí)俗

九華山新年習(xí)俗

除夕進(jìn)香

九華山居民吃過(guò)除夕團(tuán)圓飯后，或看電視守歲、或娛樂(lè)，直至新年零點(diǎn)鐘聲敲響后，有的是全家出動(dòng)，有的是家主代表，先洗臉漱口，燃放鞭炮、煙花，謂之“出行”；再將事先準(zhǔn)備好的香、鞭炮、煙花帶上到肉身寶殿（遠(yuǎn)處的則到附近寺廟）進(jìn)香。進(jìn)香途中，即使遇見(jiàn)熟人，也不言不語(yǔ)，進(jìn)香完畢回家時(shí)方可相互招呼致意。除夕進(jìn)香是為了祈求新的一年里平安如愿。據(jù)說(shuō)若燒得第一柱香，最為吉祥?，F(xiàn)已成為當(dāng)?shù)剡^(guò)年必具之習(xí)俗。

子會(huì)

信奉佛教的人集體朝山，人數(shù)滿百人以上稱“百子會(huì)”，兩百人以上的為雙百子會(huì)；不滿一百人稱小百子會(huì)。朝山者身眾著灰上裝、青褲、黃圍兜上印有“朝山進(jìn)香”字樣，在香首帶領(lǐng)下，步行上山，沿途敲鑼唱贊、逢廟叩拜。大多在地藏王生日（農(nóng)歷七月三十日）活動(dòng)最盛，素以能夠在這天晚上趕到九華山肉身殿上通宵旦靜坐“守塔”為榮。還有一些香客為亡故雙親上山敬香，他們身穿亡人的壽衣，以求得地藏王的印章祭祀亡靈為最大心愿，佛界神話說(shuō)是持此印信，亡人在冥司有遍行無(wú)阻的特權(quán)。

第四篇：傣族新年習(xí)俗

傣族新年習(xí)俗

傣族人民的新年，按照傣歷大約是農(nóng)歷清明節(jié)以后的第七天。節(jié)日期間，傣族同胞舉行熱鬧非凡的潑水、賽龍船、放高升活動(dòng)。潑水活動(dòng)是傣族人民過(guò)年的最高潮，也是傣歷年中最精彩的場(chǎng)面，因而通常稱做歷年節(jié)為“潑水節(jié)“。

這一天，人們互相潑水，用水表達(dá)真誠(chéng)的友誼，純潔的愛(ài)情，心中的祝福。潑水有文潑水和武潑水之分。文潑水是對(duì)長(zhǎng)者，舀起一勺凈水，說(shuō)著祝福的話，拉開(kāi)對(duì)方的衣領(lǐng)，讓水沿著脊梁流下去。被潑的人高興地接受祝福，不得跑開(kāi)。武潑水則沒(méi)有固定的形式，用瓢、盆、桶都可以，互相追逐迎頭迎臉地潑。被人潑的水越多，說(shuō)明受到的祝福越多，被潑的人越感到高興。
