我來自浙江臺州,我來說說臺州過端午民俗。
I'm from Taizhou in Zhejiang and I want to talk about the consuetude in Duanwu fastival in my hometown.
農歷五月初五,是傳統節日端午節,在臺州,這壹天裏往往是家人圍在壹起吃粽子或食餅筒,喝上壹點雄黃酒,不能多喝因為它有毒性。
Lunation May 5th is the dragon boat festival and the families in Taizhou like to eat rice dumplings or Shibing (maybe called buckwheat cakes). We also drink a little realgar spirit but not much,because it is toxic and bad for us.
同個臺州,不同的地方吃不同的東西。北邊的臨海、仙居、天臺等地,端午是吃粽子,而南邊的椒江、路橋、黃巖和溫嶺吃的卻是食餅筒。臺州人吃粽子名堂挺多,不僅品種繁多,有米粽、肉粽、豇豆粽、蜜棗粽,形狀則有六角粽、三角粽、四角粽等.
We have different things in different place. Linhai,Xianju,Tiantai in the north of Taizhou,people there have rice dumplings. However,Jiaojiang,Luqiao Huangyan and Wenling in the south of Taizhou,we prefer Shibing (maybe called buckwheat cakes). People in our home have so many ideas and the breed of rice dumplings is various,the stuffings consist rice,pork,cowpea,sweet jujube, and the form is also diversiform:hexagonal,trigonal,tetragonal e.g.
大家看過《白蛇傳》吧,對許仙在端午之日勸白娘子飲雄黃酒,結果白娘子現了原形。在舊時臺州,端午節喝雄黃酒的習俗很是興盛。如今,科學已經證明黃酒因含有毒性而不能飲用,臺州人民就改為在額頭上用雄黃酒寫“王”字,或者就是在被蚊叮蟲咬時,塗些雄黃酒來消解腫痛。我們還有這樣壹個習慣,就是用雄黃在房前屋後灑個遍,以求平安和福氣。
I think most of us know the <White Snake>,and we know that Xuxian asked the white snake to drink the realgar spirit then she betrayed herself.It is so popular to drink realgar spirit in Taizhou before. Actually,it is reported that the realgar is toxic and we can't to have. After that,we write 'Wang' on the forehead instead or daub on our bodies which is bited by mosquito, it is detumescent. The last hibit, i we like spraying realgar spirit every hole and corner to impetrate peace and felicity.
這些就是我知道和我經歷過的端午節習俗。
All this haibits are what I knew and I did in dragon boat festival
