英语词汇】“春晚”你知道怎么说?2019春晚即将粉墨登场,这样的举国盛宴可是全中国老百姓不可或缺的大餐。看下面这段新闻,瞧瞧如何用英语表达“春晚”?

Performers were crossing their fingers going into the penultimate dress rehearsal of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala on Tuesday. With the festival eve looming, nerves are starting to strain.

As the most prestigious showcase for China's top performers, theSpring Festival Galahas no shortage of established acts queuing up to appear. But the gala always reserves some spots for the unknowns and the up-and-coming to make their national breakthroughs.

由报道可知,“春晚”相应的英文表达是“Spring Festival Gala”。“Gala”在此指“欢快的庆祝活动”,有时也可做形容词“庆祝的,奢侈的”,如:a gala ball(庆祝舞会);the gala life of the very rich(大富翁们奢侈的生活)。
