Chapter 1229: The Old Men Have Something to Do
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, maybe there is some truth in what you said, but if you don't learn the previous words, how can you learn "Cut Rhyme"? The minister thought that His Highness's thoughts were a little ......"
Quan Wanji trembled and squeezed out of the court, and the old guy who had read all his life had his own ideas. He didn't think there was anything wrong with learning words first and then learning sounds, and even if someone hadn't pulled him, this old guy would have blurted out a whimsical word.
Li Chengqian had expected this situation for a long time, anyway, since the day he arrived in Datang, none of the things he has done have gone smoothly, and he doesn't expect it to go smoothly today.
So in the face of Quan Wanji, who was about to find something to do with his neck, Comrade Xiao Li rubbed his chin and said: "It is precisely because Mengtong can't learn "Cut Rhyme" that this palace will find you to find a way together. ”
"As the saying goes, there is no cliff in the sea of learning, and there is a road in the mountain of books, for those Mengtong who have not yet studied or have reached the age of reading, shouldn't you ancestors open a way for them?"
""Cut Rhyme" is certainly difficult to understand, but that's because no one has summarized it, and this palace can give you a hint here."
Li Chengqian said while writing the word 'xue' on the paper, and at the same time marked a 'xie' sound on it with the modern Chinese pinyin of later generations (no wonder, 'xue' in the Tang Dynasty was read according to the modern analogy of 'some', and the pinyin could not be marked), and then it took a long time to talk about the spelling between the twenty-six letters.
"See? That's the general meaning, this 'xie' is the phonetic transcription, but this palace is just an example, this is just a superficial idea, more than 20 phonetic transcriptions are not enough to mark all the words of my Datang, so this palace hopes that you will ...... based on this. ”
Li Chengqian didn't say anything halfway through, and none of the old people below were listening to what he said, and they all gathered around to discuss the examples he had just given.
The twenty-six letters were put together by these old guys, you remember three, and I remember two, and they really spelled out a few words for them.
In such a situation, the old guys obviously won't listen to what he says anymore, and the old man who thinks he is rich and rich in five cars discovers for the first time that Zhuyin can be so simple.
But soon they found out that there were many sounds that they couldn't mark, which was not something that could be marked by the pronunciation of the twenty-six letters, so the old guys began to denounce Li Chengqian again.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, your phonetic transcription is wrong, such as the word 'month', which can't be marked at all."
"Yes, I can't mark a lot of words, and the pronunciation of this phonetic transcription doesn't seem to be quite right."
"This must be changed, it must be changed, if you pronounce it according to this set of phonetic transcriptions, I am afraid that more than half of my Datang characters will be lost."
"Bang" Li Chengqian finally slapped the table angrily: "Shut up!" ”
Finally understood why the old man was always angry, the old man used to watch him mad in the court, and he was a little disapprehensive at the time, but now Li Chengqian was quarreled by a group of old guys and his head was as big as a fight, and he realized that his old man was really good-tempered.
The old men were studying the interest of learning, and they were startled by Li Chengqian's slap on the table, and then they remembered that this was in the court, not in a school like Hongwenguan.
"This palace has long said that this is just an opinion, a demonstration, a little idea, this is just to provide you with an idea, who told you that this thing must be the final thing? Yes! Says who! ”
The old guys stopped squeaking, one by one like frosted eggplants, in terms of phonetic transcription, Li Chengqian was indeed ahead of them, and a group of old guys had no face to be hypocritical in front of him.
Moreover, this group of old guys were also intrigued by Li Chengqian's simple prompt, and they all waited for him to continue, or they all waited for the Tang prince to give this task to him.
You know, the phonetic alphabet is going to be promoted throughout the country, no matter who takes this errand, as long as the day it is completed, that is, the day when the world is famous, how can the old guys who will see their reputation bigger than the sky not be in a hurry.
After Li Chengqian lost his temper, he looked at the group of poor little old men below, and also felt a little funny, sighed and continued: "This palace has summed it up, there should be a total of 8 tones in the pronunciation of my Tang Dynasty official dialect, you can go back and try it slowly, and do it slowly, to see if this is the case." ”
"In addition, the phonetic spelling I mentioned is just a preliminary idea, you should not be limited by the pronunciation of those letters, you should use your imagination, even if you can change it, or change the position.
"In short, eighteen initials, five zero initials, forty-nine finals, these are the biggest hints that this palace can give you, as for what you can make in the end, it's up to you."
Li Chengqian, with only a little knowledge of ancient Chinese pronunciation in his mind, gave a final hint to a group of old guys, as for what the old men can do in the future, it is not something that he can care about as a young man.
Anyway, this matter must be done, even if it is not for the sake of his son, it will also promote the national free education work in the future.
And the unified pronunciation is a matter of far-reaching significance, at the very least, it can carry out cultural aggression against some neighboring countries, otherwise because Chinese is too difficult to learn, how can other countries accept this language, if they don't even accept the language, how can they be conquered.
"Your Highness, you don't plan to leave it like this, do you?" Yu Zhining heard that Li Chengqian's words had the meaning of scattering the dynasty, and took the initiative to stand up and ask.
"What's the matter?" Li Chengqian asked in surprise.
"However, this is the ...... of so many of us," Yu Zhining said in a tangled manner.
There are more than 20 old guys who stay in Beijing, and so many people are tinkering with a Chinese character at the same time, how to distribute the credit in the future is a big problem, and Li Chengqian does not designate a leader, and does not designate a responsible person, if something goes wrong in the future, who will he talk to?
"What's wrong with a lot of people? You're not going to go home and stir up this in a moment, are you? Aren't you going to say hello to my father? For such a big thing, how dare I designate manpower. ”
"Uh......" Yu Zhining was stunned for a moment, and at the same time came to his senses, it seems that his people are indeed in a hurry, such a thing as phonetic Chinese characters should be greeted by His Majesty the Emperor no matter what, otherwise...... Even if it's not a big disrespect, it's a bully! nt
