Culture lesson-Learn to write Chinese antithetical couplet.
We Chinese believe that the Spring Festival is the right moment to review the year past and make plans for the year ahead. So we invited a calligrapher to show us how to write down Chinese antithetical couplet.
First, our teacher Becky told us the history about the Chinese antithetical couplet.
Everyone listened very carefully.
And then the calligrapher wrote a Chinese ancient poem to show us.
The Spring Festival couplet is to be pasted on doorposts or hall pillars, hence also known as the doorpost scroll. It consists of two vertical lines and one horizontal line, and all the lines convey the idea of good luck or jubilation, constituting a unique form in the Chinese literature.
