day169有关小满英语

“小满”是中国传统二十四节气（the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms）中的第八个节气。这个时期，农作物的颗粒开始变得饱满，但并未完全成熟，因而叫做“小满”，英文可译作Grain Buds。

During the Grain Buds period, the summer harvest is about to begin. A saying about rain during this time mentions, "A heavy rainfall makes the river full." Because of the great increase in rainfall, rivers are full of water, which makes fish and shrimp big and fat. This is a good time to eat fish and shrimp. It is also harvest season for fishermen.

小满期间，夏收就要开始了。这个时期关于降雨有句谚语：“小满大满江河满”。由于降雨量大增，河水被灌满，鱼虾长得大而肥美。此时正是吃鱼虾的好时机，也是渔民们的丰收季。
