Do you know why the date of Lunar New Year changes each year? 💡 This is because the lunar calendar is lunisolar, which means it is based on the cycle of the moon as well as on Earth’s course around the sun. 🌎☀️ A month on this calendar is 28 days long, and a normal year lasts from 353 to 355 days. To keep the calendar in sync with the sun, the lunar calendar adds an extra leap month about once every three years. Lunar New Year is celebrated across a lot of Asian cultures, and they all have their own special greetings. With the start of Lunar New Year tomorrow, we gathered up some friends to share greetings in different languages! 🧧 How do you greet the new year?
