在短时间内接连庆祝两个重大的节日。

DEFINITION

Noun , Adjective

The celebration of two major festivals in succession within a short period of time.

由来
  • 新加坡为一个多元化的社会，不同种族和宗教群体有各自的重要节日。然而，由于各族群的历法有异，因此在特定的年份会出现重大节日接连庆祝的情况，被称为 “双佳节”。
  • 例如，在 1997 年和 1998 年，回教徒恰好在农历正月初三庆祝开斋节（Hari Raya Puasa），时间点与华族农历新年（即农历正月初一）非常接近。
  • “双佳节” 一词的使用语境，不仅限于各种族或宗教群体的重大节日。例如，在 2013 年，开斋节为阳历的 8 月 8 日，即新加坡国庆日（8 月 9 日）的前一天。尽管国庆日是跨族群、举国欢庆的日子，本地媒体也称该年的开斋节与国庆日双假期为 “双佳节”。
ETYMOLOGY
  • In the diverse society of Singapore, different ethnic and religious groups each have their respective major festivals. However, as different groups may follow different calendars, major festivals may coincide and are celebrated one after another in a specific year. This is referred to as “双佳节”.
  • For instance, in 1997 and 1998, Muslims celebrated Hari Raya Puasa on the third day of the first lunar month, which was very close to the Lunar New Year (the first day of the first lunar month) celebrated by the ethnic Chinese.
  • The usage context of the Mandarin term “双佳节” is not limited to the major festivals of the various ethnic and religious groups. For example, in 2013, Hari Raya Puasa fell on 8 August, a day before Singapore’s National Day (9 August). Although National Day is a national celebration that transcends ethnicities, Singapore’s local Chinese media also referred to that year’s Hari Raya Puasa and National Day as “双佳节”.
