When is the New Year greeting?

1. Generally speaking, the time to pay New Year greetings is from the first day to the fifth day. Visiting relatives and friends after the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is a memorial to the early years, and visiting relatives and friends before the fifteenth day after the fifth day of the first month is a memorial to the old age. Early old age belongs to the nature of emergency or remedy to avoid regret. There is a folk proverb: it is not too late to celebrate the New Year with a heart.

2. Paying New Year greetings is a traditional folk custom in China, and it is a way for people to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and express their blessings to each other. In ancient times, the original meaning of the word "Happy New Year" was to pay New Year greetings to the elderly, including kowtowing to the elderly, congratulating them on a happy New Year and greeting their lives. In case of friends and relatives of the same generation, you should also salute and congratulate. With the development of the times, the custom of New Year greetings is constantly adding new contents and forms. In addition to following the previous New Year greetings, etiquette telegrams, telephone calls, short messages and online New Year greetings also came into being.
