, there is a difference in pronunciation for the word potato, that is if I say po-TAE-to and you say po-TAWWW-to.
Likewise, Chinese people call it the Chinese New Year because they are Chinese people. They do not want to call it the Vietna
mese New Year because they are not Vietnamese. However, like the word "POTATO, po-TAE-to, and po-TAWWWW-to," it is still basically just a new year celebration based on the lunar calender.
In Vietnam, they will call it the Vietnamese New Year (TET) because they are Vietnamese people. They would not want to call it the Chinese New Years because they hate the guts of the Chinese who took their island and stuff and poison them with chicken and stuff. But it is still the same holiday basically (and not exactly).
In Japan, they could call it the Japanese New Year.
In Yoshi's Island, they call it Yoshi Year.
In Star Wars, they could call it "Happy May The Force Be With You Day."

you should have been a gymnast, because you have somehow got your foot in your mouth and your head up your ass at the same time.

I think the whole "Chinese New Year" thing came from westerners and people just ran with it.

I call it the Lunar New Year in Vietnam and in China and in any country. It is like the differences between a Toyota car and a Ford car. Yeah, they are different cars but they are both cars. The Chinese and Vietnamese New Year are different but they are both cars.
