Chinese character story 1

He Tu Luo Shu Shuo

The Book of Changes says: "The river draws a picture, and the book of changes". The myth that the Yellow River ichthyosaur presented a "picture" and the Luoshui Linggui presented a "book" reflects the ancient concept of the homology of painting and calligraphy. Mr. Tang Lan clearly pointed out in "Introduction to Ancient Philology": "Characters originated from painting, and after the emergence of a unified country, combined with language, they produced real words that can be read. The emergence of characters is due to natural trends, not created by one or two people."

Chinese characters, I deal with them every day. It is also my good friend, and I had many interesting stories with it when I was growing up.

The first Chinese character I came into contact with was my name. Looking at those beautiful fonts filled me with curiosity. After I began to read at school, one day my father told me a true thing: a young man was working in a foreign country and wrote a letter to his parents, saying, "It's windy and rainy these days, and I don't even have an umbrella. If it's convenient for my parents, please bring me my life (umbrella)." After reading the young man's letter, his parents suddenly fainted. Do you think their son is dead, can you not faint? Dad wants to educate me to learn Chinese characters well.

Chinese characters can't be different in strokes, that is, there are many ways to pronounce the same word, and the meaning is completely different. I remember the first time I went to my father's office. I followed the address, and it was in hang Street. I looked for it for a long time, but I couldn't find it, so I asked an uncle, "Uncle, where is xing Street?" Uncle thought for a moment and said, "I don't know." I then asked an aunt, who thought about it and said with a smile, "Little friend, you are talking about hang Street, right? It's there." My face turned red at once. I'm so sorry.

friends, do you have any interesting stories about Chinese characters? Say it and listen!

A short story brought by the four-character word "heavenly heart takes rice"

Once, the Xiongnu in the north wanted to attack the Central Plains, and sent someone to send a "battle table" first. When the emperor opened it, it turned out to be "heavenly heart takes rice". None of the great ministers of Manchu Dynasty solved this mystery. The emperor can't think about it, so he has to post a list to recruit talents. At this time, an official named He Tang in the palace said that he had a plan to withdraw his troops, and the emperor urgently declared He Tang to go to the temple.

He Tang pointed to the four words on the "battle table" and said to the emperor, "Heaven, my country is also; Heart, the Central Plains also: rice, holy also. The heavenly heart takes rice, which is to seize the country and take the position of king. " The emperor said urgently, "What shall we do?" He Tang said, "It's okay, I have my own way to retreat." As he spoke, he took a pen in his hand and added a pen to each of the four words. The original letter was returned to the bearer.

The Xiongnu marshal thought that the Central Plains didn't dare to take up the battle, but when he opened it, he was shocked and immediately ordered to withdraw.

It turns out that after He Tang added a pen to each of the four words, it became "I may not dare to come".

A joke caused by wrong words

Once upon a time, there was a boy named Wan _, who was lazy and didn't study hard since childhood. When I grow up, I often make jokes because of writing typos.

One day, his wife said she wanted to eat loquat. He took a piece of paper from the table and wrote a few words on it with a pen. After writing, he called the servant to buy loquat. His wife took the paper and looked at it. She burst into laughter. It turned out that it said "buy five pounds of pipa". Two of the five words were wrongly written, and the word "loquat" was wrongly written as "pipa". After his wife read it, she wrote a doggerel at the back:

Loquat is not this pipa,

only because of poor literacy.

If the pipa can bear fruit,

all the flutes and drums in the city will fly.

this wan _ son read his wife's poem and turned red with shame. The pronunciation of "loquat" and "pipa" is the same, and they both pronounce pípa, which is a homonym. But "loquat" is a kind of fruit, while "pipa" is a kind of stringed instrument, and its meaning and writing are completely different.

Chinese character story 5

It is impolite to say that a man and his wife are entertaining two friends at home, and friend A toasted the hostess and said, "The drunkard's sake is not wine". The hostess pointed out that "drunkenness means nothing" and said that the friend deviated from the original intention of catching up with the host and drinking; The male host is also a little unhappy, as if criticizing that friend A "the drunken man doesn't care", which is nonsense; Friend B is laughing stealthily, implying that the host "cares about the Weng not to get drunk". I was very impressed when I read it. This is the charm of Chinese. In any other language, I'm afraid it's hard to find such a wonderful example. It's a pity that I haven't learned Chinese well since I studied. What a shame!

Not from the patriotic point of view, I also think that Chinese is the most beautiful language in the world. Not to mention that Chinese is the most abundant vocabulary and expressive expression among the known characters in the world at present.

Story of Chinese Characters 6

Literary prison refers to a unjust prison in which the rulers persecuted intellectuals in the old days. The emperor and the people around him deliberately extracted words from the author's poems, and Luo Zhi became a crime. In serious cases, it would lead to a fatal disaster, so that all family members and relatives were implicated. The so-called "killing nine families".

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was an emperor from a civilian background, and his cultural accomplishment was not high. After he became emperor, he became cruel, suspicious and murderous. He killed many people just because there was a word in the paper that he was guilty of heart disease. At that time, a man named Lin Yuanliang wrote "Xie Zenglu Table", with the words "if you do something, you will hang on to the constitution", which was originally a idiom to praise the emperor. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and thought that he was called a "thief" (the homonym of "Zuoze"), so he killed Lin Yuanliang. Another person named Xu Yuan wrote a congratulatory message with "peaceful algae ornaments" in it, which Zhu Yuanzhang thought was that he "lost peace early" ("peaceful algae ornaments"), so Xu Yuan naturally went to born to die.

The emperors in the early Qing Dynasty were very taboo about words such as Hu, Man and Yi. At that time, in Dai Mingshi's "Nanshan Collection", there was a poem "Do Your Duty in the World", which sang about Gu Yanwu, saying that he was "awed by Hu Wang's shame". There are many words in this collection that are considered "disrespectful" by the imperial court, so Dai Mingshi was killed. In the poem written by Lv Liuliang, there is a sentence that "Although the breeze is hard to blow me, the bright moon does not shine on people". The words "Qing" and "Ming" are ambiguous, which can be understood as cool wind and bright moon, and can also be understood as the wind of the Qing Dynasty and the moon of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Lv Liuliang is suspected of being dissatisfied with the rule of the Qing Dynasty. There are two lines in Shen Deqian's Poem on Black Peony: "If you win the positive color of Zhu Fei, the different species will also be king." Among them, "seizing Zhu" uses the allusions in the Analects of Confucius, but the Ming emperor surnamed Zhu, "seizing Zhu" is said to be that the Qing Dynasty seized the world of the Ming Dynasty; "Alien" originally meant "exotic species", but it was also interpreted here as "a race other than our own", referring to Manchu. Therefore, when Emperor Qianlong saw this poem, he was furious. Shen Deqian was dead at that time, so he pulled his body out and whipped it, in order to correct his heinous crime.

There were more literary prisons in the Qing Dynasty than in the Ming Dynasty, and the number of people killed was staggering. According to records, only the case of Zhuang Tinglong's Ming History "was punished by more than a thousand people". From Kangxi to Qianlong, there were more than 1 large literary prisons, and the number of people killed could be imagined.

Chinese character story 7

Shishi, a Shishi poet, loves lions and vows to eat ten lions. Shi always sees lions in the market. At ten o'clock, ten lions are suitable for the market. At the right time, Shi Shi is in the right market. Shi regarded it as ten lions, relying on the vector potential to make it ten lions die. Shi picked up the corpse of ten lions, which is suitable for the stone room. When the stone chamber was wet, Shi Shi waited to wipe the stone chamber. Stone chamber wiping, Shi's first taste is ten lions. When eating, I first knew that there were ten lions, but there were ten stone lions' corpses. Trial interpretation is a matter.

I'm afraid there is no other language that can tell a thing with only one pronunciation except Chinese.
