[ 2007-02-15 20:23 ]
2007年央視春晚即將粉墨登場(chǎng),這樣的舉國(guó)盛宴可是全中國(guó)老百姓不可或缺的大餐??聪旅孢@段新聞,瞧瞧如何用英語(yǔ)表達(dá)“春晚”?
Performers were crossing their fingers going into the penultimate dress rehearsal of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala on Tuesday. With the festival eve looming, nerves are starting to strain.
As the most prestigious showcase for China's top performers, theSpring Festival Galahas no shortage of established acts queuing up to appear. But the gala always reserves some spots for the unknowns and the up-and-coming to make their national breakthroughs.
報(bào)道說(shuō),本周二,07央視春晚迎來(lái)了第五次聯(lián)排,這也是春晚倒數(shù)第二次聯(lián)合彩排。
由報(bào)道可知,“春晚”相應(yīng)的英文表達(dá)是“Spring Festival Gala”?!癎ala”在此指“歡快的慶?;顒?dòng)”,有時(shí)也可做形容詞“慶祝的,奢侈的”,如:a gala ball(慶祝舞會(huì));the gala life of the very rich(大富翁們奢侈的生活)。
春節(jié)將近,大家再來(lái)回顧幾個(gè)常見(jiàn)的節(jié)日用語(yǔ):

農(nóng)歷 lunar calendar
正月 lunar January
除夕 New Year's Eve; eve of lunar New Year
