Chapter 305: Making Words

There is a well-established saying that human civilization arose from the emergence of writing, and the emergence of writing can be traced back to 8,000 years ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info8,000 years is actually only a small part of human history.

When human rational thinking and origin consciousness are detached from instinct, it means that real human beings salivate. Since then, human civilization has begun to develop slowly, accumulate strength, and then usher in great development.

In this process, Li Yu believes that the speed of information exchange determines the speed of the development of human civilization. The achievements of the top 10 in the 21st century have surpassed the accumulation of human civilization in the previous 2,000 years.

Thinking about and consulting the information about human civilization, Li Yu had an idea. To promote the development of the racial civilization of the little things, in fact, Li Yu doesn't have to do anything complicated, he only needs to do one thing, that is, to teach the people of the same race as the little things to speak, and create a kind of writing for them.

"That's what you think? Sure enough! Words are indeed a sign of the emergence of human civilization, and the creation of a new kind of writing here, to the little things her racial benefits are self-evident. Fang Qianmo admired Li Yu very much and found the key point.

"It's not easy to create a new kind of writing." Lin Wanbai asked a question.

Creating a new kind of writing is not an easy task. The production of a kind of writing has its own objective conditions and its own needs, and it is meaningless to create a kind of writing out of thin air.

The race of small things actually already has the prototype of words, and it has its own characteristics, so what Li Yu and they have to do is to create a kind of pictographs based on these pictorial characters.

"Actually, we don't need to create a new script completely, the meaning that Chinese characters can express is very rich in pictographs, so to sum up, creating a new script should be the most appropriate!" Maggie put forward her own opinions, in fact, in terms of aspects, her thinking is broader than Li Yu's, after all, she came out of the interstellar empire and has a much broader vision.

"Maggie is right, a civilization should have a script that fits its own characteristics, and the impact of words on its future development potential is very important, and we can't do bad things with good intentions." Li Yu very much agrees with Maggie's point of view.

If you don't consider the future development of the little thing race, then it's okay to really connect the Chinese characters.

"Also, in the beginning, the words we created should not be too complicated, otherwise it will cause difficulties in understanding and will not be beautiful!" Lin Wanbai raised another issue to be aware of.

Li Yu was discussing the issue of creating a new text, Xiao Wei was responsible for registering the points of attention they had discussed and decided, and after the little thing came out of the scanner, he pointed his fingers for a long time, and asked Li Yu to take out the dining table again.

It should be that he is already satisfied with honey, so the little thing is busy moving a bunch of fruits from the big tree, putting it on the dining table, and inviting Li Yu to share it, I have to say that those buckets of honey have a great effect, at least Fang Qianmo and she can sit at the same table.

The little thing took out the fruit, Li Yu and they couldn't be stingy, they took out the stored fruits from their rings, and Lin Wanbai also specially asked Xiao Wei to pick some fresh fruits from the ecological area of the space number and sent them over.

As a result, there was no fruit on the small table, and Li Yu had to take out another big table and put the small table on the big table.

The fragrance of the fruit also attracted more "little things" to come over, and they/they were also unceremonious, and they all found a place to sit down, but they did not rush up to eat the fruits on the table, but collectively looked at the small things, and the small things looked at Li Yu.

This cute scene made Lin Wanbai's saliva really flow out.

Countless pairs of emerald green eyes, looking at Li Yu with blank eyes, made Li Yu feel a strange emotion in his heart, he picked up a small thing that was specially placed in front of him like a cherry-like fruit, put it in his mouth, and then motioned for the little thing to eat it too.

The little thing got Li Yu's permission, and a sharp and thin sound came out of her mouth, and her people rushed up, pounced on the fruit that had long been happy, and then a burst of satisfied voices continued to sound.

After a big meal, Li Yu tentatively expressed the meaning of inviting the little thing to be a guest of the space number, and the little thing followed Li Yu stupidly, and her people also looked elated.

The little thing also had her name, Anna, and Anna's race was also named Wood Elf. In terms of the level of naming, Lin Wanbai is not very high, but at her strong request, the naming was grabbed by her, so the little thing and her race have names.

Xiao Wei has expanded the scope of targeted scans to cover the entire New Hope. The race of wood goblins, Li Yu didn't believe that only the valley where the space ship landed there, and there must also be wood goblins in other places of New Hope.

The results of the scan will take time, and Anna, who was called silly and sweet by Lin Wanbai, followed Li Yu to the ecological area of the space.

Anna is very satisfied with the environment of the ecozone, which can be seen from the fact that she went crazy as soon as she entered the ecozone, and flew into the woods and disappeared. Of course, many of the fruits of Lin Wanbai's white species in the ecological zone are probably also one of the reasons why Anna is crazy.

Letting Anna come to the space is a task, and she can't be driven crazy, but when Anna was pinched by the robot and carried to Li Yu by her wings, her pitiful appearance still made Li Yu and them burst into laughter.

Anna's ethnic group has about a hundred valid pictorial texts, and the rest may just be drawn at random, and translating the meaning of these words requires Anna's cooperation.

Li Yu pointed to an umbrella-shaped picture and looked at Anna. Anna looked at Li Yu suspiciously, but after a while, she seemed to react, pointing to the umbrella-shaped picture and making a 'tsk' sound.

Xiao Yui memorized the pronunciation of the picture, and then projected several pictures, including Anna's home, the tree. Anna reacted quickly this time, pointing to the tree and making a 'tsk' sound again.

Xiao Wei also projected several other trees in the valley for Anna to see, but she did not make a 'tsk' sound, it seems that this umbrella picture refers to the tree where she lives, that is, her home.

Out of a hundred valid drawings, Anna only knew thirty, and she wasn't a good student yet. However, after some calculations, Xiao Wei also translated the meaning of the rest of the words.

Most of these words describe things that exist in nature, and with these basic things, Li Yu and they can use them as blueprints to create words.

Pictorial characters are more complex than real words, and one of the basic elements of Li Yu's creation of words is to be concise and easy to read.

Besides, Anna and the others don't need complicated words to describe complex meanings now, that's the next step, and at that time, they need the entire wood goblin people to cooperate.

Li Yu's work was completed relatively quickly, and in a month, a full 500 characters were created.

There are six books of Chinese characters, one of which refers to things. Those who point to things can see and perceive, and "up" and "down" are also. The second is pictogram. The pictographer is painted as his object, and the "sun" and "moon" are also. Three are called shape sounds. Those who form and sound, in the name of things, take each other as examples, and "river" and "river" are also. Fourth, it is said that it will be understood. Those who know, compare friendship with others, to see the command, "Wu", "faith" is also. Five, it is said to be transferred. The person who transferred the note, built a class, agreed to accept each other, "test", "old" is also. Sixth, it is said that it is pretended. Those who pretend to borrow have no words, and they rely on their voices, and "order" and "long" are also.

Li Yu and his people made full use of the classification theory of Chinese characters.
