春天代表著一元復(fù)始、萬象更新，在世界各地，人們用獨(dú)特的節(jié)日和傳統(tǒng)來慶祝枯燥的冬季的結(jié)束，迎接鮮活的春天的到來。比如：保加利亞的三月節(jié)、荷蘭的花車巡游等等~

“手工編織”是很多人都很喜歡的DIY活動(dòng)，但你知道嗎？這竟然是羅馬尼亞的春日傳統(tǒng)活動(dòng)！下面這篇文章的作者來自于羅馬尼亞，一起跟著她的介紹了解更多吧！

Spring is a season of great joy for me and the whole community. In the tradition of the Romanian people, ladies receive “martisoare” – trinkets (小飾物) symbolizing the arrival of spring – and wear them during the spring time.

對(duì)我和整個(gè)社區(qū)來說，春天是一個(gè)充滿歡樂的季節(jié)。在羅馬尼亞人的傳統(tǒng)中，女士們會(huì)收到象征春天到來的“martisoare”小飾品，并在春天佩戴。

These traditional objects have been handed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. Often, these trinkets are crafted from wool or silk threads (線) and intricately woven in two colors.

這些傳統(tǒng)物件代代相傳了幾千年，它們通常是由羊毛或絲線制成，經(jīng)過精心制作，最后成為帶有兩種顏色的小飾品。

Traditionally, martisoare are worn throughout March, after which they are tied to the branches of a fruit-bearing tree. This act is believed to bring abundance (富足) to one’s home. People also believe that if you make a wish while tying martisoare on a tree, it will come true right away.

傳統(tǒng)上，人們?cè)谡麄�(gè)三月都要佩戴martisoare，然后把它們綁在一棵結(jié)滿果實(shí)的樹上。人們相信這樣能帶來財(cái)富，而且那時(shí)許下的愿望也能很快實(shí)現(xiàn)。

My friends and I took some colorful lucky martisoare charms and set off in search of a beautiful tree. After a short walk, we found a flowering tree and began to carefully hang the martisoare on its branches. It was a wonderful experience watching the tree come to life with those little symbols of spring. The trees become real works of art, decorated with colorful charms that dance in the wind.

我和朋友們帶了一些五顏六色的幸運(yùn)martisoare護(hù)身符，出發(fā)去尋找一棵美麗的樹。走了一小段路，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)了一棵開花的樹，就開始小心翼翼地把martisoare掛在樹枝上。看著這棵樹帶著那些象征春天的小符號(hào)蘇醒過來，真是一種奇妙的經(jīng)歷。這些樹變成了真正的藝術(shù)品，裝飾著五彩繽紛的幸運(yùn)符，在風(fēng)中起舞。

例句：When he came to decorate the kitchen, Kenneth opted for a friendly rustic look.

Hanging martisoare is a beautiful way to bring color and joy to the spring landscape while connecting with local traditions. The creation and giving of martisoare thus becomes a living, dynamic story, in which visions of the past, experiences of the present and projections of the future are gathered simultaneously (同時(shí)地).

大家通過開展制作martisoare這一傳統(tǒng)活動(dòng)，把春日色彩和期待春天的幸福感融入到春天的景色中。從制作martisoare到贈(zèng)予給朋友，這一過程就成了一個(gè)生動(dòng)的春日故事——在這優(yōu)美的故事中，我們聚集了過去的經(jīng)歷、當(dāng)下的視角和對(duì)未來的展望。
