How to hang couplets?

The method of hanging couplets is as follows:

1, according to the joint meaning.

When it is impossible to distinguish the upper and lower couplets according to the hierarchy and level, it is necessary to distinguish them according to the meaning of the couplets. Many Spring Festival couplets belong to the zodiac couplets, which can be judged according to the order of the zodiac.

For example, the couplet "Golden Crown Shakes Thousands of Doors, Yellow Ears Shake Wan Li Spring", "Golden Crown" refers to chickens, and "Yellow Ears" refers to dogs. In the ranking of the zodiac, the Chinese zodiac chicken chops rank ahead of the zodiac dogs. According to this ranking, the order of the upper and lower couplets can correspond.

2. Distinguish according to keywords.

What should I do if I encounter a situation that is not a zodiac? It must be judged by a key word or phrase in the couplet. For example, in the couplet "Fireworks only send splendid spring, Swiss dogs welcome splendid spring", we can distinguish the upper couplet from the lower couplet according to "talent" and "you". According to the order of keywords in the combination, select the corresponding up and down links.

Information about couplets:

As early as the Warring States period more than two thousand years ago, the Central Plains region hung "peach stalks" on the Spring Festival, also known as "peach symbols". Fu Cha Dunchong's "Yanjing Years" in Qing Dynasty recorded: "Spring Festival couplets are also in Fu Tao." The relationship between Spring Festival couplets and Taofu can also be seen from the traditional Spring Festival couplets, such as "firecrackers to get rid of the old, Taofu to get back", and Wang Anshi's poem "Every family always trades new peaches for the old ones".
