A: 新年快樂！
B: Uh...I'm a bit confused; New Year's Day was over weeks ago.
B: 嗯……我有點搞迷糊了，新年不是幾周前就過去了嗎？
A: You must be kidding! It is Chinese New Year, silly!
A: 妳在開什麽玩笑啊！我是說春節，妳這傻瓜！
B: Oh right, it slipped my mind. Why do you celebrate two New Years?
B: 喔，對了，我都忘了。妳們為什麽要慶祝兩個新年啊？
A: Chinese New Year is according to the lunar calendar. Chinese have been celebrating New Years in this fashion for thousands of years.
A: 春節是根據農歷而定的。中國人慶祝這個節日的習俗已經延續幾千年了。
B: I noticed that our company was very empty the past couple of days.
B: 我發現這幾天我們公司裏空蕩蕩的。
A: That is because everyone goes home for Chinese New Year; it is a family holiday, not so much a party holiday. Would you like to come to my house for New Year's Dinner?
A: 因為大家都回家過年啦，這是個家庭團聚的日子，不太屬於狂歡的節日。妳想要到我家吃年夜飯嗎？
B: Of course. Will you set off firecrackers?
B: 當然好啊，妳們會放鞭炮嗎？
A: Naturally, but the most important thing that we do during New Years is to eat! So make sure to bring your appetite!
A: 會啊，不過過年期間最重要的事情就是吃，所以準備好大吃壹頓哦！
