中秋节英文the Mid-autumn Festival。
中秋节，又称祭月节、月光诞、月夕、秋节、仲秋节、拜月节、月娘节、月亮节、团圆节等，是中国民间的传统节日。中秋节源自天象崇拜，由上古时代秋夕祭月演变而来。
最初“祭月节”的节期是在干支历二十四节气“秋分”这天，后来才调至夏历（农历）八月十五，也有些地方将中秋节定在夏历八月十六。中秋节自古便有祭月、赏月、吃月饼、玩花灯、赏桂花、饮桂花酒等民俗，流传至今，经久不息。
起源
中秋节是上古天象崇拜——敬月习俗的遗痕。在二十四节气“秋分”时节，是古老的“祭月节”，中秋节则是由传统的“祭月”而来。在传统文化中，月亮和太阳一样，这两个交替出现的天体成了先民崇拜的对象。中秋节庆源自古人对月亮的祭祀，是中华民族祭月习俗的遗存和衍生。
祭月，在我国是一种十分古老的习俗，实际上是古时代我国一些地方古人对“月神”的一种崇拜活动。
据考证，最初“祭月节”是定在干支历二十四节气“秋分”这天，不过由于历史发展，后来历法融合，使用阴历（夏历），所以将“祭月节”由干支历二十四节气“秋分”调至夏历（农历）八月十五。中秋节是秋季时令习俗的综合，其所包含的节俗因素，大都有古老的渊源。

中秋节的英语是Mid-Autumn Festival [ 'mɪd'ɔtəm ˈfɛstəvəl ]其他说法：Moon Festival；Mooncake Festival；Zhongqiu Festival。
1.中秋节英文- The Mid-Autumn Festival
这是直接按照中秋节逐字翻译过来的，“中”翻译为middle，“秋”翻译为autumn，“节”翻译festival或者day，所以最后就变成了Mid-Autumn Festival、Mid-Autumn Day、The Mid-Autumn Festival。这三个中比较正式的是The Mid-Autumn Festival，如果想要使用比较正式的表达方式，一定要记得使用定冠词“the”。
2. 中秋节英文- Moon Festival
中秋节的一项主要活动就是赏月了，在我国自古以来就有赏月的习俗，《礼记》中就有过记载“秋暮夕月”，即祭拜月神。到了周代，更是要每逢中秋都要举行迎寒和祭月。在唐代，中秋赏月、玩月颇为盛行，很多关于赏月的诗句就此兴起了，如“花间一壶酒，独酌无相亲。举杯邀明月，对影成三人。”。在宋代，中秋赏月之风更盛，它是世俗欢愉的节日，通常是不眠之夜，夜市通宵营业，玩月游人，达旦不绝。明清以后，中秋节赏月风俗依旧，许多地方形成了烧斗香、树中秋、点塔灯、放天灯、走月亮、舞火龙等特殊风俗。所以根据这项赏月的活动，外国人又称中秋节为月亮节，即Moon Festival.
3.中秋节英文- Mooncake Festival
Mooncake Festival，这个中秋节的英文说法，也是来源于中秋节的另一项活动--吃月饼，如果说赏月只是在古代比较盛行，那么吃月饼这个习俗则是流传至今。正如袁景澜《咏月饼诗》所云:"巧出饼师心,貌得婵娟月。" 月饼最初是用来祭奉月神的祭品，在祭月之后，由家中长者将饼按人数分切成块，每人一块，如有人不在家也要为其留下一份，寓意家人团圆的象征。月饼在外国人称为Mooncake，这个节日也被称为月饼节，即Mooncake Festival。
4. 中秋节英文- Zhongqiu Festival
对于这种英文写法，则带有点中国风味，Zhongqiu为中秋的汉字拼音，后面加上节日的英文翻译，合起来便是Zhongqiu Festival。类似这种中国风味的翻译还有很多，如kung fu（功夫），taiji（太极）等。
The 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar is China’s Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋节) - it is so named because it falls in the middle of autumn. This year, that’s today.
The moon is roundest and brightest at this time, and one look at the round, full moon on Mid Autumn Festival and people across all of China immediately want to sit down and eat with their closest family and friends, miss their hometowns, and get deluged by memories. Because of the tendency to sit around a round table with family and friends, Mid Autumn Festival is also called 团圆节 (Roughly ‘Gathering Holiday’). And there is no denying that Mid Autumn festival is one of the most important traditional Chinese holidays.
第八个月的第15天的农历是中国的中秋节(中秋节)——它是如此命名是因为它落在秋天。今年,这是今天。
月亮是最圆、最聪明的,和一个圆,满月在中秋节和中国所有立即想坐下来和他们最亲密的家人和朋友一起吃饭的时候,怀念家乡,被回忆淹没。由于倾向于与家人和朋友围坐在一个圆桌,中秋节也叫团圆节(约收集节日)。无可否认,中秋节是中国最重要的传统节日之一。

本人提供给你两篇！1.The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festivity for both the Han and minority nationalities. The custom of worshipping the moon can be traced back as far as the ancient Xia and Shang Dynasties (2000 B.C.-1066 B.C.). In the Zhou Dynasty(1066 B.C.-221 B.C.), people hold ceremonies to greet winter and worship the moon whenever the Mid-Autumn Festival sets in. It becomes very prevalent in the Tang Dynasty(618-907 A.D.) that people enjoy and worship the full moon. In the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279 A.D.), however, people send round moon cakes to their relatives as gifts in expression of their best wishes of family reunion. When it becomes dark, they look up at the full silver moon or go sightseeing on lakes to celebrate the festival. Since the Ming (1368-1644 A.D. ) and Qing Dynasties (1644-1911A.D.), the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebration becomes unprecedented popular. Together with the celebration there appear some special customs in different parts of the country, such as burning incense（熏香）, planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting lanterns on towers and fire dragon dances. However, the custom of playing under the moon is not so popular as it used to be nowadays, but it is not less popular to enjoy the bright silver moon. Whenever the festival sets in, people will look up at the full silver moon, drinking wine to celebrate their happy life or thinking of their relatives and friends far from home, and extending all of their best wishes to them.2.Mid-Autumn Day I think Mid-Autumn Day is an old traditional festival in China. Everybody likes it because it's a family get-together. You see it is called "Mid-Autumn Day", so it often comes in September or October. It is on the 15th of the 8th of the lunar month. Now, let's say something about this interesting festival. Firstly, I'd like to say something about the moon. I like it very much because I want to be an astronaut in the future. That day the moon is round, big, just like a beautiful plate hanging on the blue cloth. When I see the moon, I will remember the ancient myths——the goddess Chang Er and her little rabbit are playing under the tree which Wu Gang grows. I will also think about Armstrong's first moonwalk. I will also miss the friends in Tai-wan Island, in Macao and Chinese people who are abroad. I know they are missing us very much, too. Secondly, I'11 say something about the tradition on Mid-Autumn Day. Look！There's a big tree in a garden of a Chinese family. All the family members are sitting around a big table under the tree in the open air. They are eating the moon cakes and admiring the full moon in the sky. That is a family reunion dinner. The moon cakes and the moon represent the love from a family. I think this is one of the most valuable things in the world. Thirdly，it is a very good opportunity to make three wishes on Mid-Autumn Day. My wishes are: the first, I, an astronaut in the future, would like to go to the moon one day, and stay with the sky and stars; the second, I hope every person in the world will stay with family, share love from the family forever; the third, I hope everybody's dream will come true. That is the Mid-Autumn Day in my mind. I will always re-member: East or West, home is best.
