　　關(guān)于這個(gè)節(jié)日的起源有很多種說法。有一種說法是大約3000年前，一種祭祀儀式叫做“臘”，會(huì)在農(nóng)歷十二月舉行。人們向天上和地下的神獻(xiàn)出他們的獵物。

　　The Chinese characters for prey (獵) and the twelfth month (臘La) were interchangeable then, and ever since La has been used to refer to both. Since the festival was held on the eighth day of the Last month,people later appended the number eight (ba in Chinese), giving us the current Laba.

　　那時(shí)候，表示獵物的漢字“獵”和表示農(nóng)歷十二月的“臘”是可以通用的。從那時(shí)候起，“臘”就用來指這兩種意思了。因?yàn)檫@個(gè)節(jié)日是在最后一個(gè)月的第八天舉行的，后來人們就加上了“八”，于是就有了現(xiàn)在的臘八。
