白色情人节

White Day is a day celebrated in Japan on March 14, one month after Valentine's Day. It is also observed in South Korea.
在日本，情人节后的一个月，也就是3月14日，便是白色情人节。韩国同样如此。

In Japan, Valentine's Day is observed by females who present chocolate gifts (either store-bought or handmade), usually to a male, as an expression of love, courtesy or social obligation. A handmade chocolate is usually preferred by the receiver, because it is a sign that the receiving male is the girl's "only one".
在日本，情人节的时候通常是女性送巧克力给男性，以表达自己的爱意、礼貌或者社交义务。巧克力可以是店里买的，或者自己亲手做的。对于收巧克力的人来说更希望收到手工巧克力，因为这代表了自己是女孩心中的唯一。

On White Day, the converse happens: males who received a honmei-choco ("chocolate of love") or giri-choco ("courtesy chocolate") on Valentine's Day are expected to return the favor by giving gifts, usually more expensive. Sometimes the term sanbai gaeshi (literally, "triple the return") is used to describe the generally recited rule that the return gift should be two to three times the cost of the Valentine's gift.
而在白色情人节这天，事情就要倒一倒了。情人节时收到本命チョコ（表达爱意的巧克力）或者義理チョコ（出于礼貌的巧克力）的男士需要在这一天还礼作为报答，通常送的东西得比收到的更贵。有时大家会用“三倍返し”（三倍返还）这么一个短语来表达普遍存在的潜规则，也就是说还礼的礼物要比情人节收到的礼物贵上2-3倍。

十大情人节词汇

英语中浪漫的词汇有不少，比如Valentine这个词，无论是关于它的各种来源传说还是念起来的感觉，都让人充满幻想。图中的这个Amour在法语里也是个浪漫的词汇，但是到英语里却走了样：

In 2010, a poll of linguists rated amour – the French word for "love," simple and sweet – the most romantic word in the world. In English, the word gains drama and loses innocence.
2010年语言学家们开展了一次投票，amour这个意为“爱情”的法语单词被选为世界上最浪漫的单词，因为它简单又甜蜜。可是到了英语里，这个词被赋予了更多戏剧感，而丧失了原本的纯真。
