Drynuary is the practice of not drinking for the entire month of January -- staying "dry" -- usually in response to over-consumption during the holidays. It's also a campaign to encourage abstinence from alcohol during January.

“戒酒的一月”是指整个一月都不喝酒，保持“滴酒不沾”的行为，这么做通常是因为假日期间饮酒过量。这也是鼓励人们一月期间戒酒的一项活动。

 

这个词是由dry（禁酒的）和January（一月）组合而成的新词。英国人习惯把这个词写成Janopause。

 

Avoiding alcohol for the month can be seen as a form of New Year's resolution intended to cleanse¹ the liver, promote a more healthy lifestyle, atone² for sins of the past, etc. Drynuary usually results in an increase in seeing movies, drinking sparkling water in bars, and hanging out in diners drinking coffee on Saturday nights.

一月不喝酒被认为是新年决心的一种体现，即要清理肝脏，崇尚更健康的生活方式，弥补此前犯下的错等。一月戒酒通常会使周六晚上出门观影，到酒吧喝苏打水，外出就餐喝咖啡的人数增加。
