    However,this Lantern Festival is a little bit special.We can't visit the display of lanterns or guess lantern riddles or even set off fireworks...But fortunately,we can still be together to eat sweet dumplings and admire the full moon at night.Family,that's all we require.

    元宵也叫汤圆，我还发现了一个英文名字Glutinous Rice Ball，两个名字我都不喜欢，元宵节的英文翻译我也不喜欢，感觉翻译的很直白，也很牵强。都表达不出汉语特有的韵味
