1. The solar calendar is more accurate for birthdays
This is because the solar calendar has twelve months every year and there is no leap month; while the lunar calendar has leap months, so in addition to ordinary years In addition to the twelve months in a year, there will be thirteen months in three years every eight years.
In this case, using the lunar calendar to calculate birthdays, there is actually a difference of several days between the previous year and the next year. Especially for people born in a leap month, should their birthdays in the lunar calendar be celebrated in the year of the leap month, or should they be celebrated one month before the leap month? It is a very tangled question.
For example, if you are born on the first day of a leap month in May, should you wait until the leap month finally appears before celebrating your birthday? Or do you celebrate your birthday on the first day of May every year?
If the birthday is celebrated according to the Gregorian calendar, this year it will be May 1st, next year it will be May 1st, and it will be May 1st every year in the future, there will be no such problem.
2. Regardless of whether the date of birth is recorded in the lunar calendar or the solar calendar, as long as you understand which calendar it is.

3. Whether to celebrate a lunar calendar birthday or a solar calendar birthday depends on your preference
Some friends may say, for the sake of accuracy, should you celebrate a solar calendar birthday? ?
Teacher Zhang Shu believes that this does not need to be too deliberate. Birthdays are celebrated to commemorate the mother's delivery and celebrate the birth of the child. This meaning will not change depending on whether the day is in the lunar calendar or the solar calendar. Therefore, when celebrating a birthday, there is no need to celebrate it according to the solar calendar or the lunar calendar. Especially for older people, they are already accustomed to celebrating birthdays according to the lunar calendar, and there is no need to celebrate birthdays based on the solar calendar.
