大家好！这里是广州八熙翻译公司！今年的节气【大雪】是在前两天，即12月7日。
那么，按照惯例，我们来记一下大雪的英文说法
大雪： Heavy Snow
根据古籍《月令七十二候集解》所言：「十一月节，大者盛也，至此而雪盛也。」
民间素来有 “瑞雪兆丰年”（"A timely snow promises a good harvest."）的说法。待到白雪覆盖茫茫大地，越冬的害虫会被低温杀死。
The snow in North China may last a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road. The natural scenery is "ice blockading for hundreds miles and snow flying through thousands miles". In the South, the snowflakes swirl around and the world turns white.
大雪的节气都会有哪些习俗呢？
