Hello buddy,today comes the Dragon Boat Festival, or Duanwujie In Chinese.
Here we will look at some words which is related to this great festival.

1.端午节:Dragon Boat Festival
2.粽子: glutinous rice dumpling/
a pyramid-shaped dumpling made of glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves

glutinous rice是糯米,dumpling有布丁、饺子等意思,表示有馅的食物。

But here, I will recommend you just say
duanwujie and zongzi to them.They can understand what we are talking about ,besides,it is part of our centuries-old history.

Hope you enjoy it,both the festival and the ENGLISH here.

英语有时候就是翻不出来那个味道:饺子,混沌,汤圆,烧麦,小笼包,豆沙包,水煎包,锅贴……统统都是dumpling~
