Chapter 52: Simplified Chinese
That night, in Qingtong Courtyard, Fu Yuchen listened to Fu Yuchen's complaining and finished today's experience, and was angry and funny: "I really don't know whether to say that you are lucky or unlucky?" Just your lazy words with missing arms and legs, you can actually get the appreciation of the top, what is the real reason? β
"You know what! How can I call it lazy text?! β
Fu Xuechen glared at the gloating Fu Yuchen, I have to say that the fourth prince is still very keen, and his vision is absolutely amazing, you see, if you change someone else, you can't see the excellence of your own simplified characters.
Alas! If she hadn't used simplified Chinese when she copied her notes, she wouldn't be where she is today, but then again, how could she have predicted that someone would still take a fancy to her simplified Chinese characters in these years?
"It has to be named well, not lazy words." Fu Yuchen stroked his chin and thought about it: "Hmm...... Or is it called Fu's new word? Or is it called Yuchen font? β
"What's the matter with you! Named after you, it's beautiful! Fu Xuechen waved his little fist, his teeth itched and wanted to hit someone, and he said categorically: "Simplified Chinese!" It's called Simplified Chinese! β
Fu Yuchen smiled: "It's a pity! You use my identity to cause trouble, this new text can't bear your name! β
The corners of Fu Xuechen's lips twitched, if this text was really her first creation, Fu Yuchen's words might really make her half angry, but fortunately, she didn't create this simplified Chinese character, and she couldn't name it after herself, she didn't care.
Seeing that Fu Yuchen was aggrieved for her on the surface, but in fact took advantage of the cheap and obedient look, Fu Xuechen's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled: "Brother! My brother! I'll replace you for a few months, and in two months, this identity should be yours again, since it's your 'first' simplified Chinese character, then you should always be very familiar with it, right? Look, isn't it time for you to study in advance? β
Fu Yuchen: ?? Embarrassment!!
Fu Xuechen took advantage of the victory to pursue, spread out the pen and paper and began to write, starting from the radical word, according to the order of strokes, wrote a column of simplified Chinese characters successively, and marked the traditional Chinese characters at the same time, after writing a page of about twenty sets of simplified and traditional characters, he handed it to Fu Yuchen: "Okay!" Brother, let's start learning! β
Don't come here!! Fu Yuchen resisted in his heart, but he couldn't help it, his expression struggled for a long time, he finally snatched the paper from his sister's hand and looked at it resignedly.
"Dry, Yu, Wan, Feng, Open, None, Ugly, Hit, Book, East, Silk, Clip, Ya, Gan, Yao, Lai, Yan, Li, Liang, Jujube......" Fu Yuchen identified the past word by word, and compared while reading, his interest became more and more unexpected, and he sighed endlessly: "It's really a lot more abbreviated!" β
For example, dry words, only take the lower right corner of the original "Gan" part of the word, thirteen paintings become three paintings, and ten paintings are missing in an instant, and then such as ten thousand words, Feng words, ugly words, hit words, Yao words, Li words, etc., all are very simple.
For the rest, even if there are a few strokes that are not saved, such as book characters, clip characters, Asian characters, δΊε, lai words, etc., the difficulty of writing has also dropped significantly.
The key is,Don't look at these words and strokes are greatly simplified,The font also has some different changes,It still has the beauty of calligraphy under my sister's pen,Compared with the original,It's a little more simple and pure.γ
Recalling the days of being punished for copying words and books over the years, Fu Yuchen suddenly found that he had learned this new set of characters first, in fact, there was nothing wrong with it, and when the imperial court really began to implement the new characters in the future, he would be the recognized ancestor of this new script!
Even if the imperial court did not adopt these new characters in the end, what did they use to memorize in private, which would be very time-saving and labor-saving, and could they still be confidential?
"Yes!" Fu Yuchen's attitude has changed one hundred and eighty degrees: "If you can change all the complicated words so simply, for me and other people who study, it will be considered immeasurable!" β
Fu Xuechen smiled and nodded, she has figured it out now, or she won't do it, since she has to do it now whether she wants to or not, it's better to do the last step, anyway, she has been fed up with traditional Chinese characters in this era for most of the past six months, and she has the opportunity to implement simplified characters, so why not!
Fortunately, in the Han Dynasty, there was already a special dictionary, called "Shuowen Jiezi", which has been handed down to this day, and she does not need to remember the entire Chinese dictionary of later generations, but only needs to correspond to the simplified Chinese characters of each character from beginning to end according to the existing "Shuowen Jiezi" in this era.
It is a pity that the dictionaries of later generations are all pinyin, and the letters are 26 letters of the West, which are re-pronounced and deconstructed, and they cannot be explained when they are taken out, so they have to be left alone.
In addition, there are numbers from zero to nine, but you can take this opportunity to stuff Arabic numerals into them and promote them as part of the simplified Chinese characters, perfect!
Fu Xuechen thought of it, returned to the courtyard where he currently lives, and immediately found "Shuo Wen Jie Zi" and related annotation materials, and started to do it!
"Shuowen Jiezi" is a book of fifteen volumes, tens of thousands of words, each word must start from the hieroglyphs, list the evolution process, and take the small seal as the standard word, to be honest, Fu Xuechen can't understand it, so he can only consult the "Commentary on Shuowen Jiezi" compiled by the literary historians of the previous dynasty.
In this way, it is not so easy to sort out all the tens of thousands of words, and make a new dictionary with simplified and traditional Chinese conversion according to the radical arrangement of later dictionaries, Fu Xuechen calculated, according to sixty days, on average, she has to complete at least one hundred and eighteen crosses of conversion and classification every day, just ...... It's okay too!
With a plan in mind, Fu Xuechen easily wrote a series of regulations on the drafting, compilation and promotion of simplified characters, which is an outline to be handed over to the six princes for reference tomorrow, and at the same time, she also attached twenty sets of simplified and traditional Chinese characters that she wrote to Fu Yuchen before, so that the six princes can intuitively understand simplified characters.
Then after this charter is approved by the emperor, you can officially sort out the simplified characters in accordance with the charter, and at that time, you must have more than 18 crosses per day to make this "Yuan'an Dictionary".
The next day, I took the charter written by Fu Xuechen and looked at it again and again, and Yu Zuo was shocked, yes! This charter is organized and orderly, and it looks very feasible, and it is really hard to imagine that this will be the handwriting of the little marquis of the Fu family, who is less than thirteen years old.
"No need to change it! I'll show it to my father!" Yu Zuo decisively agreed, and couldn't wait for the end of school, so he hurriedly cleaned up the little lunch left in front of him, and ran out of Mingde Hall alone.
