汉服英语演讲稿(配PPT)

Good morning everyone, I’m glad to stand here and give you a speech.

1. As we all know, China has 56 nationalities and each nation has its own specific

traditional costumes, like Korean，Tibetan，Hui，Mongolian and Manchu. Han nationality has the largest number of the Chinese people. So what is Han People’s traditional clothes?”

2. Cheongsam? Or the nowadays T-shirt？No! We have our clothes.

3. It’s called Hanfu . It's the traditional costume that has been worn by Han people .

4. However, it’s sad to know that a lot of people don’t know Hanfu nowadays. When

a person who is dressed in Hanfu walked down the street , some people may think it is a kimono or a Hanbok. What’s more, there were even some people who asked the person to take off the clothes and burned it with fire. How ridiculous!

5. Now let me introduce our Han people’s traditional clothes to all of you. Hanfu,

means "Clothing of the Han people "in Chinese. It refers to the pre-17th century traditional clothing of the Han Chinese .It has the history of more than 3000 years. And it influenced Japanese kimono and Kroean hanbok.

6. Hanfu is wrapped around the body with the left side over the right, which just

looks like the letter ‘y’ when seen from the front. But there are also other kinds of collars.

Hanfu（汉服）has many patterns. Ruqun（襦裙）is worn by women.

7. When its collar likes the letter “y”,we can called it Jiaolingruqun(交领襦裙).

8. If its collar likes the number“11”,we can called it duijinruqun（对襟襦裙).

9. When it is classified by its height of the skirt，we can called it qiyaoruqun （齐腰襦裙）——Which waistband is on the waist.

10. Or qixiongruqun（齐胸襦裙）——Which waistband is above the chest .

11. There is another kind of Hannfu. When its edge is bent ,we can call it Quju(曲裾)

12. As we can see, Hanfu has many features , like curve, graceful ,elegant, generous and unfettered.

13. According to the Han people’s tradition，there are many important days. One

the day you are 15（for girls） or 20（for boys）.We will hold a ceremony to celebrate to be an adult. And remember the responsibility.

14. Nowadays, many people love our traditional culture , so they wear Hafu, found

clubs, hold activities and so on. This summer, Chengdu’s Cherry Blossom Festival, a little girl who dressed in Hanfu left a deep impression on visitors . Here are some pictures of her. She is really cute, isn’t she ?

15.

Chinese civilization,also called"Hua-Xia"."Hua"means the beauty of the dress and decoration which is Hanfu clothing;"Xia"("Shia")is the grandeur of rites and social conduct. And Hanfu reflects the philosophy of Chinese people: Living elegantly and poetically.

I like Hanfu, so today I’m not just telling you a type of clothing called Hanfu.

I hope more and more people focus on our traditional culture and don’t let such precious and beautiful things disappeared. OK , that’s all what I want to say, thank you.
