The origin of New Year's Day is New Year's Day on January 1 of the Gregorian calendar every year. "Yuan" means the beginning, and "Dan" means the day, which is "the day of first acquaintance and the first day of the new year."

The "Yuan" of New Year's Day refers to the beginning, which means number one. The beginning of any number is called "Yuan"; "Dan" is a pictographic character. The "日" above represents the sun and the "一" below represents the horizon.

"Dan" means the sun rising from the horizon, symbolizing the beginning of a day.

People combine the two words "Yuan" and "Dan" to extend it to the first day of the new year.
