Dragon boat festival handwritten newspaper

The word "Dragon Boat Festival" first appeared in the Local Records written by Zhou Chu, a famous minister in the Western Jin Dynasty: "The Dragon Boat Festival in midsummer, also called May 5, is the same as the solstice in summer." "Duan" means "beginning" and "beginning" in ancient Chinese, and calling "Duan Wu" is just like calling "the fifth day". The ancients used to call the first few days of May Duan respectively. Chen's Chronicle of Years Old in Yuan Dynasty said, "The dusty people in Beijing regard the first day of May as the first day, the second day as the second day, and even the number of five is called Duan Wu." Ancient calendars were connected by heavenly stems and earthly branches, May and Noon Moon. Shuowen Jiezi contains: "The end is also the problem of life", which means "the end is the beginning", so the fifth day of May is called Dragon Boat Festival. In the pre-Qin period, Dragon Boat Festival was a day from noon to noon. In the Han dynasty, the court changed the Dragon Boat Festival to "the fifth day of May" to facilitate the festival.

According to the historical records of Jingchu, the first "noon day" is a sunny and sunny day in midsummer, so the fifth day of May is also called "Duanyang Festival". Ancient people used heavenly stems and earthly branches as their calendar. According to the order of earthly branches, May is "noon" and noon is "sunny", so the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Duanyang". In the afternoon, the ancients often used the word "five", so Dragon Boat Festival and Dragon Boat Festival are synonyms. According to statistics, the name of Dragon Boat Festival is the most popular among all traditional festivals in China, reaching more than 20, such as Chongwu Festival, Dila Festival, Duanyang Festival, Chongwu Festival, Tianzhong Festival, Noon Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Summer Festival, May Festival, Poet Festival, Acorus calamus Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Yulan Festival, Zongzi Festival and so on.

Xi Shi looked at the engine in front of the inn and thought about the Dragon Boat Festival for a long time.

When encouraged, the thunder is weak and the snow is smaller than the animal's head.

The rushing waves highlight people's attention, and the jumping waves compete for the birds to fly back.

Kong Lung didn't believe me, so he won the championship.
