This is the earliest record of Qiqiao in ancient Chinese literature; Tang Dynasty built a poem cloud: "The stars of the appendix battle pearls.

Double Seventh Festival

The Double Seventh Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, is a traditional festival full of romance. It often goes into August in the Gregorian calendar

This festival is in mid-summer when the weather is warm and the grass and trees reveal their luxurious greens. At night when the sky is dotted with stars, and people can see the Milky Way spanning from the north to the south. On each bank of it is a bright star, which see each other from afar. They are the Cowherd and Weaver Maid, and about them there is a beautiful love story passed down from generation to generation.

Long, long ago, there was an honest and kind-hearted fellow named Niu Lang (Cowhand). His parents died when he was a child. Later he was driven out of his home by his sister-in-law. So he lived by himself herding cattle and farming. One day, a fairy from heaven Zhi Nu (Weaver Maid) fell in love with him and came down secretly to earth and married him. The cowhand farmed in the field and the Weaver Maid wove at home. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, the God of Heaven soon found out the fact and ordered the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens to bring the Weaver Maid back.

With the help of celestial cattle, the Cowhand flew to heaven with his son and daughter. At the time when he was about to catch up with his wife, the Queen Mother took off one of her gold hairpins and made a stroke. One billowy river appeared in front of the Cowhand. The Cowhand and Weaver Maid were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyalty to love touched magpies, so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).

Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival, while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquet of Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) dynasties, special articles for the "Qi Xi" were seen being sold on markets in the capital. The bustling markets demonstrated the significance of the festival.

Today some traditional customs are still observed in rural areas of China, but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However, the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maid has taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years, in particular, urban youths have celebrated it as Valentine's Day in China. As a result, owners of flower shops, bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.

『肆』 用英語來描述一下七夕節的來歷，要簡短，中文也要有

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the only Chinese festival devoted to love in the Lunar calendar.

Unlike St. Valentine's Day in Western countries there is not so much emphasis on giving chocolates, flowers and kisses.

Instead, Chinese girls prepare fruits, melons and incense as offerings to Zhi Nu, the weaving maiden.

Praying to acquire high skills in needlecraft, as well as hoping to find satisfactory husbands.

In the evening, people sit outdoors to observe the stars.

Chinese grannies would say that, if you stand under a grapevine, you can probably overhear what Zhi Nu and Niu Lang are talking about.

農歷七月初七是中國唯一的一個關於愛情的節日。

與西方國家的情人節不同的是，人們並沒有那麼重視巧克力、鮮花和親吻。

相反，中國女孩准備水果、瓜香作為祭品送給織女，祈禱獲得高超的針線工藝，並希望找到令人滿意的丈夫。

晚上，人們坐在戶外看星星。中國的奶奶們會說，如果你站在葡萄樹下，你可能會無意中聽到織女和牛郎在說什麼。

(4)七夕節的英文介紹擴展閱讀：

七夕（中國傳統節日）一般指七夕節，又稱七巧節、七姐節、女兒節、乞巧節、七娘會、巧夕、牛公牛婆日、雙七等，是中國民間的傳統節日，為傳統意義上的七姐誕，因拜祭活動在七月七日晩上舉行，故名「七夕」。

拜七姐，祈福許願、乞求巧藝、坐看牽牛織女星、祈禱姻緣、儲七夕水等，是七夕的傳統習俗。經歷史發展，七夕被賦予了「牛郎織女」的美麗愛情傳說，因被賦予了與愛情有關的內涵，使其成為了象徵愛情的節日，從而被認為是中國最具浪漫色彩的傳統節日，在當代更是產生了「中國情人節」的文化含義。

七夕節既是拜七姐節日也是愛情節日，是一個以「牛郎織女」民間傳說為載體，以祈福、乞巧、愛情為主題，以女性為主體的綜合性節日。七夕的「牛郎織女」來源於人們對自然天象的崇拜，上古時代人們將天文星區與地理區域相互對應，這個對應關系就天文來說，稱作「分星」，就地理來說，稱作「分野」；牛郎織女星象對應地理分野的記載見於《漢書·地理志》：「粵地，牽牛、婺女之分野也」。

七夕節發源於中國，是世界上最早的愛情節日，在七夕節的眾多民俗當中，有些逐漸消失，但還有相當一部分被人們延續了下來。在部分受中華文化影響的亞洲國家如日本、朝鮮半島、越南等也有慶祝七夕的傳統。2006年5月20日，七夕節被中華人民共和國國務院列入第一批國家級非物質文化遺產名錄。

『伍』 有沒有關於七夕情人節的英文的介紹謝謝!

Or should we say Happy Night of Sevens! (七夕 or qi xi) or Happy Festival to Plead for Skills! (乞巧節 or qi qiao jie) or Happy Seventh Sister's Birthday! (七姐誕 or qi jie dan) or Happy Night of Skills! (巧夕 or qiao xi)? This is the day Shanghaiist has had circled on our lunar calendar for some time now, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Today we will display our skill at carving melons, we will decorate the horns of our neighborhood oxen with flowers and we will go to the "temple of matchmaker" and pray that we get hooked up. Good times, good times. China Daily fills us in on the holiday's history:

The festival has its origin from a romantic tragedy. As the story goes, once there was a cowherd, Niulang, who lived with his elder brother and sister-in-law. But she disliked and abused him, and the boy was forced to leave home with only an old cow for company. The cow, however, was a former god who had violated imperial rules and was sent to earth in bovine form.
One day the cow led Niulang to a lake where fairies took a bath on earth. Among them was Zhinu, the most beautiful fairy and a skilled seamstress.

The two fell in love at first sight and were soon married. They had a son and daughter and their happy life was held up as an example for hundreds of years in China.

Yet in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Deity in Taoism, marriage between a mortal and fairy was strictly forbidden. He sent the empress to fetch Zhinu.

Too bad this LSD trip didn't take place in Canada. Fairies can marry whoever they want there. Several other variations on the story of qi xi exist. China Daily, it seems, glossed over the juiciest part of the story:

A young cowherd named Niu Lang (牛郎, "the cowherd", the star Altair) happens across seven fairy sisters bathing in a lake. Encouraged by his mischievous companion the ox, he steals their clothes and waits to see what will happen next. The fairy sisters elect the youngest and most beautiful sister Zhi Nü (織女, "the weaver girl", the star Vega) to retrieve their clothing. She does so, but since Niu Lang sees her naked she must agree to his request for marriage.

Chinese Valentine's Days in a year
Chinanews Anthony

Chinanews, Beijing, July 31 - Today in the 7th day of the 7th month in the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, the Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, which is considered as the Chinese Valentine's Day, a sweethearts day. However, what is sweeter is that there will be a second Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival on August 30, as there is a intercalary seventh month this year. The last time when there were two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals in a year was in 1968.

The Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, also known as the Needlework's Day or Girl's Day, on which girls pray to the Weaving-Maid for her blessing on their needlework, and of which the most romantic part is the love story between Weaving-Maid and Cowherd.

It is said that Cowherd from the mundane world and Weaving-Maid from heaven loved each other. They were separated by the Milky Way at the order of the Queen Mother of the Western Heaven, and were permitted to meet only once a year. Cowherd and Weaving-Maid became the stars Altair and Vega. They would meet on the seventh night of the seventh lunar month every year, with the magpies making a bridge to help them cross the Milky Way. People regarded the date of wedding as " meeting of stars " so far. Their beautiful tale has touched the hearts of so many young lovers in China throughout the ages, thus every year on the Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festival, many lovers would prey to the two stars for love and happiness.

Two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals in a year is more than good news to lovers, but why? That is because the traditional Chinese lunar calendar is based on the syzygies of the moon, and there are only 355 or 354 days in a year, 11 days less than a solar year. The solution to this problems is to add seven intercalary months every 19 years, thus in 2006 an intercalary seventh month is added, making two Seventh Evening of the Seventh Month Festivals.

『捌』 中國七夕節英文介紹

每年的農歷七月初七被稱為「七夕」。阿拉伯數字「7」在漢語中寫做「七」，而「夕」在古漢語中指夜晚，所以「七夕」的字面義就是農歷七月初七的晚上。

The day falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month and seven is qi in Chinese. So that explains qi in the name of the festival. Xi means 「night」 in ancient Chinese, so qixi means the evening of the seventh day of the seventh month.
