“端午”的名称奥秘
<p>端午亦称端五，是我国最大的传统节日之一。“端”的意思和“初”相同，称“端五”也就如称“初五”；“端五”的“五”字又与“午”相通，按地支顺序推算，五月正“午”月。又因午时为“阳辰”，所以端五也叫“端阳”。五月初五，月、日都是五，故称重五，也称重午。此外，端午还有许多别称，如：夏节、浴兰节、女儿节、天中节、地腊、诗人节等等。端午节的别称之多，间接说明了端午节俗起源的歧出。时至今日至少有四、五种说法，诸如：纪念屈原说；吴越民族图腾祭说；起于三代夏至节说；恶月恶日驱避说，等等。</p><p><span word="Dragon">Dragon</span> <span word="Boat">Boat</span> <span word="Festival">Festival</span>, <span word="also">also</span> <span word="known">known</span> <span word="as">as</span> <span word="Duanwu">Duanwu</span>, <span word="is">is</span> <span word="one">one</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="largest">largest</span> <span word="traditional">traditional</span> <span word="festivals">festivals</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="China">China</span>. <span word="The">The</span> <span word="meaning">meaning</span> <span word="of">of</span> "<span word="Duan">Duan</span>" <span word="is">is</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="same">same</span> <span word="as">as</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="of">of</span> "<span word="Chu">Chu</span>". <span word="The">The</span> <span word="name">name</span> <span word="of">of</span> "<span word="Duan">Duan</span> <span word="five">five</span>" <span word="is">is</span> <span word="just">just</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="of">of</span> "<span word="Chu">Chu</span> <span word="five">five</span>";
