2017西方情人節英語日記
St Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14 of each year, the reason why it is celebrated on this day is because this was the day that the Patron Saint of Lovers "St Valentine" was supposedly executed on.
情人節是每年的2月14日，它在這一天慶祝的原因是因為這一天是戀人的保護神“圣瓦倫丁”定下來的。
On this day lovers all around the world mark this occasion as a day for sending poems, cards, flowers or candy, etc. They might also be a social gathering or ball to mark the occasion.
這一天世界各地的情侶都以贈送詩歌、卡片、鮮花和糖果等等來慶祝。他們也可能以社交聚會或舉行舞會來紀念這個日子。
Many Valentine's Day customs involved ways that single women could learn who their future husbands would be. Englishwomen of the 1700's wrote men's names on scraps of paper, rolled each in a little piece of clay, and dropped them all into water. The first paper that rose to the surface supposedly had the name of a woman's true love.
許多情人節風俗涉及到單身女性可以獲悉他們未來的丈夫是誰呢。1700年的英格蘭女性把男人的名字寫在紙片上，把每一小塊放在泥里滾，然后把他們全都丟進水里。第一個浮出水面的就被認為是真愛。
Also in the 1700's, unmarried women pinned five bay leaves to their pillows on the eve of Valentine's Day. They pinned one leaf to the center of the pillow and one to each corner. If the charm worked, they saw their future husbands in their dreams.
同樣在1700年代，未婚女性會在情人節前夕把五片桂葉別在她們的枕頭上。她們別 一片葉子在中間之后把另外四片別到四個角落。如果有效的話，她們會在夢里看到她們未來的丈夫。
One of the oldest customs was the practice of writing women's names on slips of paper and drawing them from a jar. The woman whose name was drawn by a man became his valentine, and he paid special attention to her. Many men gave gifts to their valentines. In some areas, a young man gave his valentine a pair of gloves. Wealthy men gave fancy balls to honor their valentines.
最古老的風俗是把女人的名字寫在紙片上，然后就把它們從一個罐子里面拖出來。那個被拖出來的女人的名字就會成為他的情人，他也會對她特別的關注。許多男人把禮物送給他們的情人。在一些地方，年輕的小伙子會給他的情人節一副手套。富有的男人會舉行舞會來紀念他們的情人。
