Story about interesting Chinese 1: Seven and Lacquer

Once upon a time, there was a very dangerous person. The ferry is called "Dukou Ferry". There are cliffs for hundreds of miles around, so people nearby have no choice but to cross the river from Dukou Ferry. A local man named Li Xing was jealous of money, so he occupied Dukou Ferry and stipulated that anyone who crossed the river from here must give him a certain amount of money, otherwise he would never cross the river. Therefore, people also call this ferry "King of Hell Ferry".

There was a long-term worker, Sun Da, who was smart and resourceful. He made up his mind to eliminate harm to the place and let Li Xing suffer.

One day, Sun Da was carrying a small bucket containing three liang and seven qian of paint to cross the river. Li Xing's men asked Sun Da for money. Sun Da said: "I am a painter. I am penniless. I only have three to two or seven dollars of paint. If you want it, just take it." Li Xing's men saw that Sun Da was wearing thin clothes and had nothing else, so they accepted the paint. .

After Sun Da crossed the river, he immediately wrote a petition and went to the Yamen to accuse Li Xing of robbing him of thirty taels, seven cents and eight cents of platinum.

The county magistrate captured Li Xing and asked him: "Why did you rob Sun Da of three taels, seven cents and eight cents of platinum?"

Li Xing replied with a sad face: "Qingtian Da Sir, I didn't rob him of three taels and eight platinums. I just asked him for three taels and seven dollars of paint." When the county magistrate heard this, he said to Li Xing: "The plaintiff said three taels and seven cents. Qian Ba, you confessed that the amount of the platinum was only one point, which may have been an error in weighing. Now that you have confessed truthfully, I will sentence you to return the full amount of the platinum to Sun Da."

When Li Xing heard this, he hurriedly defended himself and said, "Sir, it's not three taels and seven cents of platinum, but three taels and seven cents of paint!"

The county magistrate thought that Li Xing was still quibbling, so he ordered many officers to do so. Hit Li Xing fifty times. Not only was Li Xing beaten to pieces, but he also had to give Sun Da three taels, seven cents, and eight platinums. From then on, Li Xing no longer dared to do anything wrong in Dukou Ferry.

Sun Da cleverly used the homonymous relationship between "qi" and "qi" to punish Li Xing. He really used homophones to the extreme!

Stories about interesting Chinese language Chapter 2: East and West

Zhu Xi was a famous scholar in the Song Dynasty. Once, the scholar went to see a friend Sheng Wenru. When he arrived at Sheng's house, Sheng Wenru was going out carrying a small basket. When Sheng Wenru saw his old friend coming, he quickly put down his basket and entertained Zhu Xi. Zhu Xi looked at his busy look and asked, "What were you going to do with the basket just now?" He replied, "I was just going to buy something!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi said, Unexpectedly, he laughed and asked: "Buy something? Don't you want to buy North and South!" Unexpectedly, Sheng Wenru nodded and said seriously: "You can only buy things, but you really can't buy North and South!" Then, he explained. After some discussion: "The east belongs to wood, the west belongs to metal; the south belongs to fire, and the north belongs to water, and water and fire are incompatible. My basket cannot hold any water or fire items, so I really can't buy north or south." "

After saying this, Zhu Xi nodded repeatedly, praising him for being right!

Indeed, in ancient times, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were called the "Five Elements". This is what Sheng Wenru said about matching the five directions of east, west, south, north and center with the "five elements".

This is naturally a legend about the word "thing". The word "East and West" can both express directions: east and west; at the same time, it often refers to concrete or abstract things. When it refers to things, although it is composed of two directions juxtaposed, it no longer has the meaning of indicating direction. In fact, it has become a synonym for certain things and is very commonly used in speaking and writing.

Story about Interesting Chinese Language 3: The Chinese Character of "Misplaced"

Yesterday, a classmate knocked on my door hurriedly, saying that he had a new discovery to tell me. I asked whether he had discovered a new continent? He said it was no less than a new continent.

It turned out that what he "discovered" was that the words "dwarf" and "shoot" were "misplaced".

He said that "Ai" is composed of two radicals, "Ya" and "Wei". The original meaning of "Ya" is arrow; "Wei" has a meaning of "abandonment". And "shoot" is even more clear. "Cun" and "body" mean not high, and not high means "short". In fact, his discovery had already been discovered by predecessors.

After his reminder, I seemed to have made a discovery. The pronunciation of the two words "filthy" and "sui" should be said to be "misplaced". "馃" and "锟斤拷" are both pictophonetic characters. "馃" is pronounced huì, while "锟斤拷" is pronounced suì. The phonetic consonants of "寅" indicate the pronunciation. The consonant "sui" of "審" is pronounced suì, and the consonant "hui" of "谪" is pronounced huì. Therefore, the pronunciations of "馃" and "锟斤拷" should be interchanged.

Of course, our opinions may not necessarily make sense, they are just fun.

[Teacher’s explanation]

The “misplacement” of Chinese characters mentioned by the two students is that one is a misplacement of meaning and the other is a misplacement of pronunciation, but they are not based on the perspective of philology. It's just a joke.

If you don’t explore the origin of the words “dwarf” and “shoot”, looking at the shape alone, it makes people think that they are two misplaced characters. In fact, "shoot" in bronze inscriptions is an ideographic word composed of three parts: "bow, arrow, and hand", which means that the arrow is attached to the bow and fired with the hand, so its original meaning is to shoot. Beside the word "dwarf" on the right side, the shape of the oracle bone inscription is a slave kneeling on the ground holding a dry and curled stalk of grass. The grass is withered and curled up, making it appear shorter than when it was taller and taller than its full length. Yakawei means withered grass. It is only as long as an arrow, so its original meaning is short.

The ancient Chinese character creation method is generally based on the seal form of Chinese characters. After the transformation and simplification of Chinese characters, the structure has undergone great changes and is no longer in line with the ancient character creation method. Therefore, it cannot be based on the Chinese character form. A random analysis of Chinese characters before the official transformation and simplification.

As for whether "寅" and "谪" are misplaced, that is not up to us, although we think it would be more reasonable to change the pronunciation of the two characters. You should know that there are very few phonetic phonetic characters that can accurately express the pronunciation of the character. The vast majority of phonetic characters cannot accurately represent the pronunciation of the character, or even do not represent the pronunciation of the character at all. For example, the phonetic character "every" in "海" is far from the pronunciation of the character. .
