/ traductionConseil: ne pas traduire en faisant du mot à mot. Le but est de tourner la phrase pour que la légende soit jolie à lire en français: bon courage
Long ago the current emperor determined the start of the new year. It uses the first day of the first month of the lunar year as the start of the chinese new year.
Legend tells of a village in China, thousands of years ago, that was ravaged by an evil monster one winter's eve. The following year the monster returned and again ravaged the village. Before it could happen a third time, the villagers devised a plan to scare the monster away. Red banners were hung everywhere; the colour red has long been believed to protect against evil.
Firecrackers, drums,and gongs were used to create loud noise to scare the beast away.
The plan worked and the celebration lasted several days during which people visited each other, exchanged gifts, danced and ate tasty comestibles.
