The Spring Festival is approaching, and the Spring Festival couplets are also particular, what are the four aspects that need to be paid attention to?

Part I: The content of the couplet.

The content of "Spring Festival couplets" should be consistent with the atmosphere of the Spring Festival and place hope on the future. When choosing "couplets", be careful not to write words that are too sad, too bleak, or too sarcastic, so as not to affect the atmosphere of the New Year. In addition, the content should be consistent with traditional Chinese culture and spread positive spiritual power. In particular, it should be pointed out that although some "couplets" are beautiful words, their meanings are not clear and should not be used as "couplets".

Part II: Number of Couplets.

Since the traditional Chinese culture believes that the singular number is a symbol of auspiciousness and harmony, the word "double" is generally a singular number. "Five-word poems" and "seven-word poems" are relatively common ones, with auspicious, auspicious, reunion and other beautiful meanings. In the choice of couplets, you should choose as many words as possible, not even numbers.

Problem 3: Paste couplets.

When pasting couplets, be careful not to glue the words above and the words below. Usually, the last word of a couplet is a sound (that is.

Three or four tones), and the last word is flat (i.e., the first and last tones). In addition, according to the custom of the ancient ** character, the couplet should be hung on the right side of the gate, and the couplet should be hung on the left side of the gate. This is due to the fact that ancient people had the habit of writing from top to bottom and from right to left, so when pasting couplets, this habit should also be followed.

Part IV: The Color of the Couplet.

The couplet "should choose red as a beautiful meaning such as "festive", "auspicious" and "prosperous". Red is an indispensable color in the Chinese New Year, and it represents that everything will be better in the New Year. When buying Spring Festival couplets, you should try to avoid using colors such as black and white, as this will ruin the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

In short, in the process of posting Spring Festival couplets, we should pay attention to the "four aspects", that is, content, quantity, method and color. Only by clarifying the taboos can we better inherit this traditional custom and add a happy and peaceful atmosphere to the Spring Festival. Finally, I wish every family a happy and prosperous New Year!
