中国的七夕节的英文是Chinese Valentine's Day 以下是2005年chinadaily网站有关七夕节的英文介绍： Raise your head on August 4 and gaze at the stars, you will find something romantic going on in the sky. VALENTINE'S Day in China, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, falls on August 4 this year. That is, on Monday evening, Niu Lang and Zhi Nu will meet on a bridge of magpies（鹊桥） across the Milky Way（银河）. Chinese grannies will remind children that they would not be able to see any magpies on that evening because all the magpies have left to form a bridge in the heavens with their wings. Romantic legend The legend has been handed down for nearly 2 millennia. The story has been recorded as far back as the Jin Dynasty (256-420 AD). Poets composed hundreds of verses on the love story and many types of Chinese opera tell the story. The Chinese people believe that the star Vega（织女星）, east of the Milky Way, is Zhi Nu and, at the constellation of Aquila（天鹰座）, on the western side of the Milky Way, Niu Lang waits for his wife. Zhi Nu was said to be the youngest of seven daughters of the Queen of Heaven. With her sisters, she worked hard to weave beautiful clouds in the sky, while Niu Lang was a poor orphan cowherd, driven out of his home by his elder brother and his cruel wife. Niu Lang lamented over his lonely and poor life with an old cow, his only friend and companion. The magical cow kindly told him of a way to find a beautiful and nice woman as his life companion. Under the direction of the cow, Niu Lang went to the riverside on an evening, where the seven fairies slipped out of their heavenly palace to bathe. He took one of the beautiful silk dresses the fairies had left on the bank. When the fairies left the water, the youngest couldn't find her clothes and had to see her sisters fly back to heaven without her. Then Niu Lang came out with the dress and asked the youngest fairy, Zhi Nu, to stay with him. Several years passed on Earth, which were only a few days in heaven. Niu Lang and Zhi Nu lived happily together and had two children before the Queen of Heaven discovered Zhi Nu's absence. She was so annoyed she had Zhi Nu brought back to heaven. Seeing his beloved wife flying in the sky, Niu Lang was terrified. He caught sight of the cowhide hanging on a wall. The magical cow had told him before dying of old age: "Keep the cowhide（牛皮） for emergency use." Putting the cowhide on, he went after his wife with his two children. With the help of the cowhide, Niu Lang was able to follow Zhi Nu into heaven. He was about to reach his wife when the Queen showed up and pulled off her hairpin to draw a line between the two. The line became the Silver River in heaven, or the Milky Way. Zhi Nu went back to the heavenly workshop, going on weaving the clouds. But she was so sad, and missed her husband across the Silver River so much that the clouds she weaved seemed sad. Finally, the Queen showed a little mercy, allowing the couple to meet once every year on the Silver River. Well-known poem One of the most famous poems about the legend was written by Qin Guan of in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Fairy Of The Magpie Bridge Among the beautiful clouds, Over the heavenly river, Crosses the weaving maiden. A night of rendezvous, Across the autumn sky. Surpasses joy on earth. Moments of tender love and dream, So sad to leave the magpie bridge. Eternal love between us two, Shall withstand the time apart. (Translated by Kylie Hsu) 鹊桥仙 宋·秦观 织云弄巧 飞星传恨 银汉迢迢暗度 金风玉露一相逢 便胜却人间无数 柔情似水 佳期如梦 忍顾鹊桥归路 两情若是久长时 又岂在朝朝暮暮 Compared with love stories in Western legends, the story of Niu Lang and Zhi Nu seems not as intense or passionate. Love doesn't kill or break up the barrier between them. They just wait patiently on the riverbank, believing that their love can withstand their time apart. It is faith and emotional liaison instead of physical attraction and desire that is emphasized in the story as well as in many other Chinese folktales（民间故事） about love. In only a few Chinese folk love stories can be found a description of the physical appearances of the hero and heroine. In the "Butterfly Lovers", the heroine, dressed as a boy to attend school, falls in love with a classmate. After they have lived together as classmates for years, the hero did not have the slightest clue that his best friend is actually a girl! Chinese ceremonies The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the only Chinese festival devoted to love in the Lunar calendar. Unlike St. Valentine's Day in Western countries there is not so much emphasis on giving chocolates, flowers and kisses. Instead, Chinese girls prepare fruits, melons and incense（熏香） as offerings to Zhi Nu, the weaving maiden, praying to acquire high skills in needlecraft（裁缝）, as well as hoping to find satisfactory husbands. In the evening, people sit outdoors to observe the stars. Chinese grannies would say that, if you stand under a grapevine, you can probably overhear what Zhi Nu and Niu Lang are talking about.

七夕节用英语翻译过来是Double Seventh Festival.读法是[ˈdʌbl] [ˈsevnθ][ˈfestɪvl]。
七夕节，为每年农历七月初七，又名乞巧节、七巧节、双七、香日、星期、兰夜、女儿节或七姐诞等。“七夕”最早来源于人们对自然天象的崇拜。
早在远古时代，古人将天文星区与地理区域相互对应，这个对应关系就天文来说，称作“分星”，就地面来说，称作“分野”。
因七夕赋予了牛郎织女的美丽传说使其成为象征爱情的节日，在当代更产生了“中国情人节”的文化含义。

一、风俗习惯
七夕节的乞巧习俗，始于汉代。
在晴朗的夏秋之夜，天上繁星闪耀，一道银河横贯南北，银河的东西两岸，各有一颗闪亮的星星，隔河相望，遥遥相对，那就是牵牛星和织女星。七夕夜晚坐看牵牛织女星，是民间的传统习俗。
民间相传，在每年的七夕夜晚，是天上织女牛郎鹊桥相会之时，织女是一个美丽聪明、心灵手巧的仙女。女孩们在这晚上对着天空的朗朗明月，摆上时令瓜果，朝天祭拜，乞求天上的女神能赋予她们聪慧的心灵和灵巧的双手。
让自己的针织女红技法娴熟，更乞求爱情婚姻的姻缘巧配。世间无数的有情男女都会在这个晚上，夜静人深时刻，对着星空祈祷自己的姻缘美满。
二、传承发展
在古代，七夕的确和牛郎织女传说关系密切，但它是以女性为主体的综合性节日，这一日女子会访闺中密友、祭拜织女、切磋女红、乞巧祈福，因此七夕又有“女儿节”的称谓。
女性欢天喜地竞技娱乐的日子，男子也凑个热闹在一旁欣赏，男女定情只是“女儿节”盛会中的副产品。有现存文字记述的七夕风俗最早见于《书经》时代（春秋中期）。
七夕风俗中流传时间最久、流传范围最广的当属“乞巧”。古人对一年一度的乞巧习俗十分重视。在七夕夜晚，年轻的姑娘、妇女们要摆上事先准备好的时令水果。
对着皎皎明月，朝天祭拜。她们还要举行各种乞巧仪式，虔诚地乞求织女神赋予她们聪慧的巧手，祈求自己能够得到美满爱情的姻缘巧配。
