  • There is no such thing as "Chinese New Year", it's called the "Lunar New Year". As Vietnamese, Koreans, Japanese (originally), and other Asian cultures celebrate it also.

  • @johnadamsyt why don't you just piss off? this is called Chinese new year, because we Chinese made the lunar calendar, we were the first to start celebrating it, it is the most important element in our culture. btw, Koreans no longer celebrate it, Japanese no longer celebrate it, Vietnamese shouldn't celebrate it.

  • @bentotheclarke "The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements. The lunar cycle is about 29.5 days. In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese insert an extra month once every few years (seven years out of a 19-yearcycle). This is the same as adding an extra day on leap year. This is why, according to the solar calendar, the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year." In the Gregorian calendar, it occurs between January 21 and February 20.
