春节一般指正月初一,是一年的第一天,又叫阴历年,俗称“过年”;但在民间,传统意义上的春节是指从腊月的.腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶,一直到正月十九,其中以除夕和正月初一为高潮。在春节期间,中国的汉族和一些少数民族都要举行各种活动以示庆祝。
圣诞节(Christmas)又称耶诞节,译名为“基督弥撒”,西方传统节日,在每年12月25日。弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。圣诞节是一个宗教节,因为把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝,故名“耶诞节”。
大部分的天主教教堂都会先在24日的平安夜,亦即12月25日凌晨举行子夜弥撒,而一些基督教会则会举行报佳音,然后在12月25日庆祝圣诞节;基督教的另一大分支——东正教的圣诞节庆则在每年的1月7日。
圣诞节也是西方世界以及其他很多地区的公共假日,例如:在亚洲的香港、澳门、马来西亚和新加坡。圣经实际上并无记载耶稣诞生日期,圣诞节是后人公定的。
