【元宵節英文】提燈籠、猜燈謎、看煙火、放天燈、燃放蜂炮英文怎麼說？
元宵節即將來臨，今天我們來學習一下關於元宵燈籠節的一些相關英語吧！首先，元宵節英語怎麼說呢？英語可以用 Lantern Festival，因為這個節日傳統習俗就是提燈籠。如何用英語介紹元宵節：
The Lantern Festival, also known as Yuanxiao Festival, is a traditional Chinese celebration marking the end of the Lunar New Year. People enjoy lantern displays, eat sweet rice dumplings called yuanxiao, and participate in cultural performances, symbolizing reunion, harmony, and good fortune.
元宵節，又稱為燈節，是中國農曆新年慶祝活動的結束。人們賞燈、吃元宵，參與文化表演，象徵著團圓、和諧與幸福。
- 『提燈籠』的英文
元宵節傳統習俗之一就是『提燈籠』，動詞可以用 carry，所以提燈籠就可以說成carry lanterns。
During the Lantern Festival, children eagerly carry lanterns, adding to the colorful spectacle of the festivities.
在元宵節期間，孩子們懷著興奮的心情提著燈籠，為節慶增添了豐富多彩的景象。
- 『猜燈謎』的英文
『猜燈謎』的英文可以是 'guessing lantern riddles' 或 'solving lantern riddles'。
During the Lantern Festival, families gather around, enjoying the tradition of guessing lantern riddles, which adds an extra layer of fun to the festivities.
在元宵節期間，家庭聚集在一起，享受猜燈謎的傳統，為節日增添了額外的樂趣。
- 『看煙火』的英文
『看煙火』的英文是 'watching fireworks'。也可以加上一個道地表達 to your heart’s content（到達心滿意足的程度）。
During the Lantern Festival, people gather to watch fireworks to their heart’s content, illuminating the night sky with vibrant colors.
在元宵節期間，人們聚集在一起盡情觀賞煙火，用絢麗的色彩照亮夜空。
- 『放天燈』的英文
『天燈』的英文要怎麼說？只要在 lantern 前加上 sky 形成 sky lantern 即可，而放天燈的動作則可以用 release 這個動詞表示，像是平溪的放天燈活動就可以說成 release sky lanterns 喔！
During the festival, people gather by the riverside to release sky lanterns, symbolizing their hopes and dreams ascending into the night sky.

- 『燃放蜂炮』的英文
臺南鹽水會用燃放蜂炮慶祝元宵節，『蜂炮』的英文就可以說成 beehive fireworks，首先 beehive 是『蜂巢』，而蜂炮則以這個字再加上煙火 fireworks 或鞭炮 firecrackers 表示，而無論是放煙火或放鞭炮，這個施放的動作一般會使用 set off或是 let off。所以放蜂炮就可以說 let off beehive fireworks / firecrackers.
The villagers celebrated the harvest festival by letting off beehive fireworks and firecrackers, filling the night sky with bursts of light and sound. 村民們通過放鞭炮和煙花來慶祝豐收節，讓夜空充滿了閃光和聲音。
