So let's look at three biggies and see which one you think rings true.

因此，让我们看看三个大问题，看看您认为哪一个是正确的。

First up, some historians reckon it's to do with the English poet and playwright, Chaucer.

首先，一些历史学家认为这与英国诗人和剧作家乔叟有关。

He had a story of a fox tricking a rooster, which took place 32 days since March began, so... 1st of April!

他有一个狐狸戏弄公鸡的故事， 故事发生在三月开始后的第 32 天， 所以……4 月 1 日！

Or was he just playing with words and tricking his readers?

Hmm... Next up, spring renewal festivals date back to Roman times and usually marked the start of nature's new year.

嗯...接下来，春季更新节可以追溯到罗马时代，通常标志着大自然新年的开始。

During these occasions, the rules went out the window.

在这些情况下，规则就消失了。

Now, the new year bit of the calendar may have moved to January, but according to this theory, the pranks and tricks stayed at the start of spring.

现在，日历的新年可能已经移到了一月，但根据这个理论， 恶作剧和恶作剧仍然停留在春天的开始。

Number three is all about fish.

There are records of pranks being linked to April 1st in France and Holland back in the 1500s.

早在 1500 年代，法国和荷兰就有与 4 月 1 日有关的恶作剧记录。

And did you know, in French, it's known as April It's April Fool's Fish Day.

你知道吗，在法语中，它被称为 April It's April Fool's Fish Day。

One of the oldest pranks is to stick a paper fish on someone's back and to give out chocolate fish as treats.

最古老的恶作剧之一是在某人的背上贴一条纸鱼，并赠送巧克力鱼作为零食。

Some say it's because in spring the rivers were full of fish, so it was really easy to trick them with bait and catch them.

有人说是因为春天河里鱼多，用鱼饵诱鱼上钩真的很容易。

So the truth is, no one really knows exactly where April Fool's came from, or maybe they do, and they're just not telling us.

所以事实是， 没有人真正知道愚人节的确切来源，或者他们知道， 只是他们没有告诉我们。

Maybe someone is pranking us both right now.

也许现在有人在恶作剧我们俩。
