Lenten belongs to LentLenten屬於Lent（大齋期） the forty days before Easter復活節前的四十天 when some Christians eat less, skip meat, or stop something they enjoy有些基督徒會少吃、不吃肉，或戒掉一些自己喜歡的東西 Churches treat it as a serious, quiet wait for Easter教會把它當作一段嚴肅、安靜地等待復活節的時期

Though actually, the season itself is called Lent; Lenten is usually the describing word that sits in front of another word — a Lenten fast, Lenten food, the Lenten season. People do say “Lenten” as a shortcut for that time, but “Lent” is the name you will hear most. It is a church-calendar word, not a word for ordinary dieting.

Though actually不過其實 the season itself is called Lent這段時期本身叫做Lent Lenten is usually the describing word that sits in front of another wordLenten通常是放在另一個字前面的形容詞 a Lenten fast, Lenten food, the Lenten season像a Lenten fast（大齋期的禁食）、Lenten food（大齋期的食物）、the Lenten season（大齋期） People do say “Lenten” as a shortcut for that time人們的確會用「Lenten」當作那段時間的簡稱 but “Lent” is the name you will hear most但「Lent」才是你最常聽到的名稱 It is a church-calendar word這是教會曆法用的字 not a word for ordinary dieting不是用來說一般節食的字

And it is not lent, the past of lend — that only shares a sound. In Taiwan, Catholic churches say 四旬期; some Protestant churches say 預苦期.

And it is not lent, the past of lend而且它不是lent，也就是lend的過去式 that only shares a sound那只是發音剛好一樣 In Taiwan在台灣 Catholic churches say天主教會說「四旬期」 some Protestant churches say有些基督教教會說「預苦期」
