Culture
Halloween (万圣节) (wan4 sheng4 jie2) is here. It is the happiest day for kids, at least for my kids.
When I just came to America, I didn’t understand why people are so happy on this day. It seems American people enjoy playing with anything related with ghost (鬼) (gui3) and death (死亡) (si3 wang2).
If you read my post:周璇 (Zhou1 Xuan2) and her songs, you might know a bit of this beautiful Chinese woman, an actor (演员) (yan3 yuan2) and singer (歌手) (ge1 shou3).
Today, I am going to talk about another beautiful Chinese woman Echo.
In this post, I will talk about one of the most beautiful (美丽的) (mei3 li4 de) Chinese women in Chinese history (历史) (li4 shi3): 周璇。From the Wiki link, you will know about her life in summary.
We will appreciate a Chinese ancient poem: painting (画 ) (hua4).
It was said the title “painting” was not the original title of this poem . People found this poem on a painting, so they gave the poem the title “painting”.
