中秋節到了！🌕
The Mid-Autumn Festival is here! 🌕

在台灣，我們不只會吃月餅，還常常把月餅禮盒送給家人、朋友或客戶。
In Taiwan, we not only eat mooncakes, but also give mooncake gift boxes to family, friends, and clients.

而且台灣中秋節還會吃柚子 yòuzi！🍐
We also eat pomelos (柚子 yòuzi) during the Mid-Autumn Festival! 🍐

很多小朋友吃完柚子，還會把柚子皮戴在頭上，變成可愛的「柚子帽」！😆
Many kids even put the pomelo peel on their heads and turn it into a funny little “pomelo hat”! 😆

這次我們去新加坡，也剛好遇到中秋節，看到了漂亮的中秋裝飾和各式各樣的月餅禮盒。🇸🇬🥮
On our recent trip to Singapore, we also experienced the Mid-Autumn Festival and saw beautiful decorations and many different mooncake gift boxes. 🇸🇬🥮

為什麼滷味常常是咖啡色的？🤎

🇹🇼🍉 「這條路切西瓜吧！」是什麼意思？
🇺🇸🍉 What does “Let’s qiē xīguā (切西瓜) here!” mean?

你以為「切西瓜」就是把西瓜切開來吃嗎？
Do you think 「切西瓜」 simply means “cut a watermelon”?

其實在台灣，「切西瓜」還有另一個很有趣的意思！
Actually, in Taiwan, 「切西瓜」 has another fun meaning!

就是不繞遠路，直接從中間穿過去、抄近路！
It means taking a shortcut by going straight through the middle instead of going all the way around!
