Etiquette about the Spring Festival

The etiquette about China New Year is as follows:

1, be polite

When meeting guests, you should say hello less. When you meet a guest, you should say hello first, and then say "Happy New Year". Parents can tell their children in advance if they don't know their names. If you want more, the Spring Festival is a festival that pays attention to "auspiciousness" and "meaning". When auspicious wishes come from the lovely baby's mouth, the elders must be happy to blossom.

2, red envelope etiquette

Thank you for receiving the red envelope. The elders give red envelopes, and the baby should take them with both hands and say "thank you" to the elders. Don't open the red envelope in person, it's better to put it in your parents' bag or in your pocket.

3. Table manners

When eating, you should bring the food that you can't clip in front of you, and you can ask someone next to you to clip it for you. Just look at that piece and clamp it. Don't copy over and over again. This is very impolite. Meat dishes with soup should be carefully clamped to avoid splashing on clothes. After eating, put the dishes away, say "eat slowly" and then get up and leave.

Origin of the Spring Festival

In the traditional farming society, it is of great significance to return to the earth in spring at the beginning of the year, which has spawned a large number of related festivals and customs. In the historical development, although the calendar is different and the date of the first festival is different, its festival framework and many folk customs have been passed down. In modern times, people set the Spring Festival on the first day of the first lunar month, but generally it doesn't end until at least the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The Spring Festival is the most solemn traditional festival of the Chinese nation, with a century as the first and four seasons as the first. Influenced by China culture, some countries and regions in the world also have the custom of celebrating the Spring Festival. According to incomplete statistics, nearly 20 countries and regions have designated the Spring Festival in China as a legal holiday in all or part of the cities under their jurisdiction. Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are also called the four traditional festivals in China.
