starandrea新年好，春节快乐，今天是大年初一！Happy year of the dragon, or year of the loong! *
This next game was going to be a matching game, involving common 4-character phrases used to wish people good luck and good health, where you connect the first half of the phrase to the second. But as with so many forms of expression, there aren't really any wrong answers, just less common ones!
So instead of one-to-one matching, I made it into a poll, so you can select as many matches as you want ♥
( poll answers )
*The following fun article gives a nice summary of the dragon/loong history and discourse, and includes whatmarcicat calls "words of wisdom for the year ahead" when it quotes Christina Huang's appreciation of the word "loong" as a design element: "You can always add more Os!"
