|
||
|
||
- These are "couplets" or, two lines of verse, usually in the same meter and joined by rhyme, that form a unit.
|
||
|
||
- Part on the left is called "上联”, Shànglián, or "upper scroll". This is the first part of the poetry.
|
||
|
||
- Part on the right is called "下联”, Xiàlián, or "lower scroll". This is the last part of the poetry.
|
||
|
||
- Sometimes on the top, will be a horizontal scroll, and this is the name of the Chūnlián. This is called the "横批”, Héngpī, or Horizonal Scroll/Banner
|
||
|
||
- 你家贴春联了吗？
|
||
|
||
- Nǐ jiā tiē chūnliánle ma?
|
||
|
||
- Have you put up Spring Festival couplets at home?
|
||
|
||
- tiē -> to stick
|
||
|
||
- 你家春联掉了
|
||
|
||
- Nǐ jiā chūnlián diàole
|
||
|
||
- Your Spring Festival couplets fell off
|
||
|
||
- It is believed that if their couplets fall off, their luck will fall off as well, so they want to make sure they get them stuck and stay on, and remind each other to put them back on
|
||
|
||
- 福 -> fú
|
||
|
||
- Means "Happiness" or "Blessing", and is always in the center of the chūnlián.
|
||
|
||
- Has two parts in the character.
|
||
|
||
- The part on the left is the radical of "to clothe". it means you have enough clothes to wear, and stay warm.
|
||
|
||
- The part on the right is the radical is three parts, 一 + 口 + 田
|
||
|
||
- Yī kǒu tián -> A field. This means you have enough food to eat.
|
||
|
||
- Combined, happiness to Chinese is enough clothes to wear, and enough food to eat, which. is pretty good honestly.
|
||
|
||
- Sometimes the character is positioned upside down, BECAUSE the character for "upside down" is "倒“ or "Dào", which is the exact same pronunciation as 到, which means "to arrive". So, they put it upside down, to the good forutne will arrive. *Convoluted? absolutely. Adorable? Slightly.*
