The Meaning of Paper Cutting
剪纸所体现出的意义
People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper cuttings. For example：for a wedding ceremony,red paper cuttings are a traditional and required decoration on the tea set,the dressing table glass,and on other furniture. A big red paper character“Xi”（ happiness) is a traditional must on the newlywed's door. Upon the birthday party of a senior, the character “Shou” represents longevity and will add delight to the whole celebration；while a pattern of plump children cuddling fish signifies that every year they will be abundant in wealth.
人们在剪纸中看到了希望和表达愿望的安慰。例如：婚礼，红色的剪纸是一种传统，并要求装饰茶具，梳妆台的玻璃，和其他家具。一个大红“喜”（幸福）是一种传统，必须贴在新婚的大门上。长者的生日派对，字“寿”代表长寿，将为整个庆祝活动增加喜悦;而胖乎乎的孩子拥抱鱼的图案表示，他们每年都会收获丰富的财富。
