中秋月餅 Autumn Festival Moon Cake

大年, 小莉, 肚子餓了吧？ 要不要吃月餅啊？

Da-Nian, Xiao-Li, are you hungry?  Would you like to eat a moon cake?

好哇。 我要豆沙餡的。我想要蛋黃酥。

OK. I’d Like one stuffed with bean paste.  I want to one stuffed with yolk.

月餅配上高山茶, 味道更好!

The moon cake taste better to go along with high mountain tea.

這些月餅哪裡買的?看起來好好吃喔!

Where did you buy the moon cake? It’s delicious.

是奶奶特別寄來的。

Grandma sent them.

一想到奶奶，月餅好像就特別地香甜可口。

Moon cakes seem to more tasty at the thought of Grandma.

中秋節是全家團圓賞月的日子。

Mid Autumn Festival is the day for the whole family to appreciate the Moon.

不能全家團聚賞月，過節的興致就少了許多。

Right. If the whole family can’t get together to enjoy the moon, there’s just no holiday spirit.

我住在國外, 實在不太懂中國人的節日耶!

I live in abroad, and I don’t know much about Chinese holidays.

因爲秋天是收穫的季節，所以在中秋節慶祝豐收。

Mid-autumn is the harvest season, so the Mid-Autumn Festival celebrate a fruitful harvest.

我還記得奶奶曾經講過關于嫦娥的故事,真好聽。

I remember Grandma told me the story of Chang-O.  That was really a good story.

文文, 我也要聽! 你快說嘛!

Wen-Wen, I want to listen to the story. Tell me.
