孔雀舞(peacock dance)是傣族(Dai ethnic group)最廣泛流傳的古代舞蹈之一，同時(shí)也是傣族最受喜愛的舞蹈。對(duì)傣族來說，孔雀象征著好運(yùn)、幸福、美麗和誠實(shí)，所以跳孔雀舞是為了歌頌美好的生活，表達(dá)對(duì)幸福生活的美好的祝愿。孔雀舞主要在傣歷的新年-潑水節(jié)（the Water-splashing Festival)、關(guān)門節(jié)(the Gate Closing Festival)、開門節(jié)(the Gate Opening Festival)和一些重要的宗教活動(dòng)上表演。他們通過跳優(yōu)雅的孔雀舞來祈求和平與幸福。

參考翻譯:

1.孔雀舞是傣族最廣泛流傳的古代舞蹈之一：“最廣泛流傳的”可用the most wide-spread表示，spread意為“傳播”，wide-spread意為“廣泛傳播的”；“傣族”可譯為Dai ethnic group。

2.對(duì)傣族來說，孔雀象征著好運(yùn)、幸福、美麗和誠實(shí)：“對(duì)傣族族來說"可譯為to the Dai people,因上文有“傣族”的全稱，故此處可以簡寫，也可譯為for the Dai people; “象征著”可以理解為“是…的象征”，故可以用be a symbol of：..來表示。
