When Chinese people are spending the Spring Festival，westerners wonder which is the symbol of the year of yang．Is it the Year of the Goat or the year of the Sheep？But the word for goats and sheep in Chinese is"yang"．
When westerners want to translate a children's TV show into English．Is it translated as Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf or Pleasant Sheep and Big Big Wolf？
So what's the difference between a sheep and a goat？For westerners，sheep are seen as harmless while goats aren't easy to control．
There is a similar problem when the Year of the Rat/Mouse comes．Westerners think that mice are generally seen as cute animals，while rats are seen as dirty ones．
Dragons and pigs also cause the same confusion．In westerners'opinion，dragons are harmful to humans，but in China，they are usually symbols of good luck，so are pigs．However，in the west，pigs are dirty and fat．
Westerners are still trying to work out exactly what year they're celebrating．Which represents the Year of yang，sheep or goat？A Chinese word could be translated into both．And the same things also take place on other animals，such as dragons，snakes and monkeys．Some Net users pointed out that this is not the only animal on Chinese lunar （農(nóng)歷） calendar．"It seems like westerners could be confused every year．What should they call the Year of niu，Ox，Cow or Bull？"a Net user said．
