情人节 Valentine's Day



每年的214日是西方传统的情人节。“情人节”又称“圣瓦伦丁节”(Valentine's Day),以圣徒瓦伦丁的名字命名,至今已有1000多年的历史。

相传在古罗马时期,每年早春时节当地人都会举行祭祀婚姻之神的活动,而在活动前夕即2月14日,每个罗马少女的名字都会被写在一张小纸片上,并放入一个瓶中。每个小伙子从中抽出一张,纸片上名字对应的少女便成为他的“意中人”,这便是情人节的雏形。

 

 In Western tradition, February 14 is the Valentine's Day. "Valentine's Day", also known as the "Saint Valentine's Day" (Valentine's Day), named after saints Valentine's name has been in 1,000 years of history.

According to legend, in Roman times, On the eve of February 14, Each girl’s name will be written on a small piece of paper and placed it in a bottle. The young man drawn from the bottle with the corresponding girl’s name will became his "partner", which is the embryonic form of the Valentine's Day.
