Why isn't Chinese New Year the same time as everyone else's new year?
<|assistant|>
Chinese New Year is traditionally celebrated on the first day of the month of Chinese Calendar. Since the Chinese Calendar is lunar-based, its festivals and holidays do not necessarily fall on the same date each year on the Gregorian calendar. For instance, Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year, ranging from late January to late February. As a result, Chinese New Year is often not the same time as everyone else's new year.
