Teacher from Dhaka University Confucius Institute Discusses Spring Festival on RTV达卡大学孔子学院本土教师妮鲁做客RTV畅谈春节文化
2月16日，恰逢中国农历除夕，达卡大学孔子学院本土教师妮鲁应邀参加孟加拉国电视台RTV《聚焦中国》（CHINA FOCUS）节目，分享春节文化及中孟文化交流见解，并讲述了自己在中国过年的亲身经历。
节目中，妮鲁回忆留学期间首次在中国过春节的难忘体验：与同学们包饺子、放鞭炮、贴对联、写“福”字、收红包，并共同观看春晚。她还介绍了达卡大学孔子学院如何通过剪纸、书法、写“福”字等文化活动，帮助学生体验并感知中华文化。
妮鲁表示，深入理解文化内涵有助于语言学习。她在节目中介绍了红灯笼和鞭炮背后的传说及节庆寓意，并指出中孟两国在节日期间都有团圆相聚、互赠礼物、以热闹的声响表达喜悦等相似传统，体现两国人民对幸福生活的共同追求。
她认为，节日文化的共通性不断拉近两国人民的情感距离。她还观察到，近年来春节正吸引越来越多孟加拉国年轻人的关注，期待未来开展更多双向文化交流活动。
此次妮鲁参与节目，展现了孔子学院本土教师的良好风采，也是中孟人文交流深入发展的生动体现。
