Sweeping the dust掃塵的英語介紹中英對照：
“Dust” is homophonic with “chen”(塵)in Chinese, which means old and past.

This custom shows a good wish of putting away old things to welcome a new life. In a word, just before the Spring Festival comes, every household will give a thorough cleaning to bid farewell to the old year and usher in the new.

中國新年現在俗稱春節，因為它是在開春后開始的節日(二十四節氣的第一個節氣)。春節的起源要追溯到很久很久以前，對于春節的起源有幾種說法，但是每一種說法都有“年”這個詞，現代漢語里也意為年，據說是一個大怪物的名字，是它的威脅迫使人們在開年的時候再夜里祈禱。(于是就有了過年這一說)
