What is the difference between a "sacrifice day" and a "taboo day"

Sacrifice day:

What is meant by the term "sacrifice day" at the Qingming Festival? "the day of sacrifice or memorialization".

China's ancient texts say "Sacrifice Day" is different from this. "Sacrifice day" is one of the important sacrificial rites in ancient China. The Son of Heaven set up a large altar to sacrifice to the Sun God on the vernal equinox every year.

For example: "Guanzi - light weight self" said: "winter and the beginning of spring, the son of heaven out of the east of his country forty-six miles and altar, dress green and 絻 green, strike jade 揔, with jade monitor, towards the lords and lords of the ministers and officers of the Lie Shi, followed in the people, the number is said to sacrifice the sun." Another example: "Rituals - Sacrifice Law" said: "buried less jail in Tai Zhao, sacrifice time; close to the Kantan, sacrifice cold and heat also; Wang Gong, sacrifice day also."

The "Sacrifice of the Day" said at the Qingming Festival is a paratactic structure, in which "sacrifice" is the definite article; the "Sacrifice of the Day" said in ancient times when sacrificing to the Sun God is a verb-object structure, in which "sacrifice" is the definite article. "Sacrifice" is a dominant verb.
