漢英對照/重陽節

重陽節是在中國曆法的第九個月的第九天，是一個傳統的中國節日。根據《易經》，九是陽數，農曆九月的第九天（或雙九）有太多的陽（中國傳統的精神概念），因此是一個潛在的危險日期。因此，這一天被稱為「重陽節」。為了防止危險，這一天習慣上登高避禍。

Chongyang Festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month in the Chinese calendar, is a traditional Chinese festival. According to the Yijing, nine is a yang number; the ninth day of the ninth lunar month (or double nine) has too much yang (a traditional Chinese spiritual concept) and is thus a potentially dangerous date. Hence, the day is called "Double Yang Festival" (重陽節). To protect against danger, it is customary to climb a high mountain.
