吃团圆饭

On the last day of the lunar year, there is a big family dinner。

阴历年的最后一天，通常要吃一顿丰盛的团圆饭。

On New Year's Eve the whole family had a sumptuous feast of reunion。

除夕之夜， 一家人吃了一顿丰盛的团圆饭。

Whenever possible, these people tried to follow the Chinese tradition of returning home and reuniting with family members. Onthis day all the members of a Chinese family gather around the table for a "reunion dinner," also known as "tuan yuan fan."

在有可能的情况下，都一定要在“除夕”那天赶回家来吃团圆饭，同父母妻儿共享天伦之乐。

It doesn’t matter if the family members cannot get together a tordinary times, but they should have a family reunion dinner on a festival。

平时不在一起没有关系，但是过节的时候，一定要全家人聚在一起，吃一顿团圆饭。
