Chapter 206: Transformation

Since ancient times, a major factor hindering human communication is the language barrier, because of the language barrier, so Qin Shi Huang unified the script, the entire Great Song Dynasty cultural circle, other countries want to learn the advanced technology and culture of the Great Song Dynasty, they also have to learn Chinese characters.

But this time-

The emergence of Hanyu Pinyin.

Compared with the original phonetics, Hanyu Pinyin only selects the 'reverse cut' to refine and standardize, so as to form a new concise, standardized and systematic spelling phonetic method.

However, it is this kind of standardization, systematization, and refinement that completely changes the entire phonetics, and this change is like the invention of writing, the recording of language, just like the refinement of the seven-tone scale, and the role of recording, composing, and even playing in music.

Therefore, as long as you really have the goods, and study carefully, and learn the people, you will feel the real superiority of the phonetic method of Hanyu Pinyin.

If you are a Chinese in later generations, you will learn this kind of Chinese pinyin or Taiwanese phonetic at the beginning, and you will not feel that this Chinese pinyin is good or bad, and even feel inconvenient.

However, the people of this era are deeply affected by the various defects of traditional phonetics.

"It was so convenient. ”

"Good thing, with this, I won't always be wrong when I study literature!"

"This thing is to the phonetic sound of the text, just like the compass is to draw a circle, among all the good things of Qin Xianao, I directly feel the benefit. ”

"Maybe the unified voice can really be realized, this time I can really serve Qin Xianao, you see, obviously compared with the 'reverse cut', the advanced nature is not very big, but why can't others do so well?

"There is no vanity under the fame, Qin Xianao can have a great reputation. It's really not covered. ”

......

One by one the readers sighed again and again, in addition to the convenience of this method, there are also sour, after all, this Chinese pinyin is a great credit to cultural transmission, unified pronunciation, but this kind of refining phonemes. So it is not difficult to upgrade the reverse cut to standardization, systematization, and conciseness, but why didn't he think of it?

In addition to being sour, there are also many people who are reflecting, reflecting on where the problem is, it is obviously easy to invent, why can Qin Xianao think of it, but they can't think of it?

The scholar class is like this, and ordinary people have read this "Language". In particular, Qin Xianao bragged about how good Hanyu Pinyin is in the article, and even partially used it to replace Chinese characters, which is even more exciting.

"Qin Gongzi has done good deeds again, this method is good, if I knew this method back then, I still used it to spell a word, and desperately cut two Chinese characters in my mind, what is the upper and lower words. It was divided and welded, and it was spelled out by turning back and forth on a few bends. It may even be misspelled. ”

"It turns out that the text has phonetics and ideograms, and our Chinese characters are ideographic, and they can't be hooked with sounds, so they are the most difficult to learn in the world. Becoming an ancient text like a guess, this is the Sage of Confucius's advocacy for people to read?"

"Qin Gongzi exposed another lie, it turned out that Confucianism said that he wanted people to read, but countless obstacles were set up under his hands, haha. Fortunately, Qin Gongzi really wants us to be literate, yes, words are used for preaching, not for pretending to be ghosts, now well, we can also easily learn words, at least this phonetic Chinese pinyin, easy to learn......"

"After reading this "Language", I know why Qin Xianao said that "Three Character Classic", "Ancient and Modern Sage Text" and "Disciple Rules" are not suitable, it turns out that the truth is here!"

"Originally, my family couldn't afford to read, but he had to learn this Chinese pinyin, and it wouldn't take much time anyway. ”

......

The people who really need to go to school are always the people and the people at the bottom, but in the past, reading was too difficult and time-consuming, so even if they wanted to, they couldn't afford to read, so after reading this Chinese pinyin, the people, especially the people at the bottom, were excited to tell each other, and even some illiterate people bought books for the first time and asked people for formal reading of Chinese pinyin.

As for whether Hanyu Pinyin will really work, there is no need to think about it, when did Qin Xianao deceive them?

The scholars sighed, the people were excited, and the bigwigs in the martial arts world were much more complicated, some people were happy and excited, after all, solving the problem of Chinese character phonetics was a real good thing, but there were also people like Sima Guang and Cheng Yi, thinking more, and even extremely worried about whether this matter was a blessing or a curse?

Of course, in addition to the full text of "Di Zi Gui" and the announcement of the release of "Language" in this issue of the newspaper, there is also a notice that the next issue will release the enlightened textbook "Mathematics".

However, for this prediction, the scholars and the martial arts world are directly ignored, so the name of 'mathematics' is arithmetic, what can arithmetic be?

Of course, the people still have some expectations.

Time passed, in just a few days, some of the people who were anxious have learned Hanyu Pinyin according to the "Language", and even were able to write letters and articles with it, which was even more excited to spread around, there was a precedent, and it also led to a wave of craze for learning Hanyu Pinyin, but the overall number was still relatively small.

At this time, a new issue of the newspaper was also issued.

This is a very simple tea house, but it is very lively early in the morning, and there are ten tables inside, and nine tables are already full.

"Yo, what kind of wind blew you here today, General Huang!"

"I'm busy, thinking that Qin Gongzi's newspaper is about to arrive, so why don't you hurry up and find a good seat. Huang Jia walked towards the only empty table with a smile, and sighed very emotionally in his heart, for a while, as a Qin Xianao and a believer in the Immortal Country, he Huang Jia has been so busy lately that his feet don't touch the ground, and this time is squeezed out today.

"It's almost there, yo, it's there. "I saw children selling newspapers on the streets.

"General Huang, you are busy, take a sip of tea first, and I'll buy it for you. ”

"That's a lot of work!"

Soon, someone handed the bought newspaper to Huang Jia, and Huang Jia unfolded it, and his eyes fell on the front page.

"Sima Guang and Cheng Yi on the New Edition of the Enlightenment Textbook -- Interview Record of Our Reporter" is clearly visible.

"Sima Guang and Cheng Yi jumped out again?" Huang Jia sneered in his heart, "These two old monkeys are really restless, isn't it enough to be slapped in the face? Huang Jia shook his head and looked down.

"I saw in the newspaper that Qin Xian's proud son released a message saying that he wanted to write enlightenment textbooks. I, Sima Guang, was very surprised, because the existing enlightenment textbooks like "Thousand Character Text" are already classics among the classics, and this "Thousand Character Text" has been a well-deserved king in the enlightenment textbooks since its birth, until another book was born, that is, "Hundred Family Names". The essay study of "Hundred Family Names" and all aspects are far inferior to "Thousand Character Essays", and the reason why it is important is that it is practical......"

"There are classics such as "Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names" here, and it is undoubtedly thankless for Qin Gongzi to compile another set......"

Huang Jia was stunned for a moment.

"Looking at this Sima Guang's appearance, it seems that he is not here to smash the field?" Huang Jia shook his head in his heart and continued to look down.

"But I miscalculated, I didn't expect that Qin Gongzi was a real genius. His first enlightenment textbook, "The Three Character Classic", I just read a few sentences. I knew that it was a good book, and the reason why I had such an idea......"

Then I continued to read, and the more I read, the more shocked I became, and some people might say three words and one sentence, and I could write it, yes, just three words and one sentence, and a farmer may not be able to make it up. But this "Three Character Classic" is different, and his is different. Ordinary people can't see it, but people who read ......"

Huang Jia's eyes widened.

"It's just that this Sima Guang doesn't say bad things about the "Three Character Classic", but you blow ......."

In the interview, Sima Guang's praise of the "Three Character Classic" is the truth in Huang Jia's opinion, and the "Three Character Classic" is well-deserved, but you are Sima Guang. Since Qin Xianao started the newspaper, I don't know how many times he has yin against you, making you almost the prime minister of the dead country, you are touting it......

"The doctrine that Qin Gongzi believes in is the set of the Immortal Kingdom, and you Sima Guang is the set of Confucianism. Qin Gongzi wants to overthrow your doctrine, and you still ...... like this"

Huang Jia believes in the country of immortals, believes in the declaration of the New People's Party, and believes in Qin Xianao, and is naturally happy and excited about others praising Qin Xianao's "Three Character Sutra", but Sima Guang, who is Qin Xianao's opponent in Huang Jia's eyes, praises.

"Definitely, it must be praised first and then depreciated. Huang Jia took a breath and continued to look down, but-

"I think the status of the "Three Character Classic" in the enlightenment textbook is definitely higher than that of the "Thousand Character Text" and the "Hundred Family Names" ......"

"After Qin Xianao finished publishing the "Three Character Classic", he published a notice to publish the "Ancient and Modern Sage Text" in the next issue, I am very disdainful of this, why? Just because the "Three Character Classic" is written too well, Qin Xianao finished writing the "Three Character Classic", how can he get anything else?"

"But once again, I miscalculated. ”

"The moment I saw the text of "Ancient and Modern Sages", I was completely shocked, what kind of book is this, I think many people must know that it is a peerless book that penetrates the world and sees through everything......"

Huang Jia opened his mouth.

"I am here to conclude that the book "Ancient and Modern Sages", just like "Tao Te Ching", like "Zhuangzi", is the only one in the world, it is impossible to have another one, and it is impossible to produce ......"

After Sima Guang touted "Ancient and Modern Sages", this time he also praised "The Three Character Classic" without hesitation, and even the final definition, which made Huang Jia have a feeling, this book is really so good?

And then-

"Qin Xianao was able to write the "Three Character Classic" and "Ancient and Modern Sages", and when he wrote the "Disciple Rules" again, I finally learned a lesson, and I no longer dare, and I no longer disdain him to think that he can't write a third good enlightenment textbook......"

"Sure enough, as soon as the "Disciple Rules" arrived, I read it a little bit, and I had to admire again, this "Disciple Rules" ......"

is touting again, Sima Guang touted the "Di Zi Gui", and then touted the "language", especially the Chinese pinyin in it, and then-

"It's over?"

Huang Jia glared, "This Sima Guang just praised it like this, so he didn't say it?" didn't praise it first and then depreciate it, and finally came to a 'Although these four books are very good, but ......'"

Huang Jia shook his head, feeling that he couldn't see through it, and after frowning slightly, Huang Jia continued to watch, this time it was an interview with Cheng Yi.

"Everyone can see that the book "Three Character Classic", three words and one sentence, are very easy to understand, but although the text is simple and easy to understand, the content is not so, which is also the most commendable part of "Three Character Classic......"

Cheng Yi is also complimenting, and-

"How powerful the "Three Character Classic" is, I can tell you a sentence, this is a 'small compendium', what is a 'small compendium', it is ......"

""Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names" are undoubtedly powerful, but if I really want to choose the first book of enlightenment, this is the "Three Character Classic" is the ......"

Huang Jia blinked, Cheng Yi's praise was undoubtedly unadulterated, as if he had no intention of suppressing Qin Xianao on this, and after touting the "Three Character Classic".

"The book "Ancient and Modern Sages" has reached a kind of plain and natural, and the poem praised by Li Bai is 'natural carving, clear water out of hibiscus', this is a book that is close to the Tao......"

"When I saw the book "Disciple Rules", the old man was very happy, really happy, although Qin Xianao's "Three Character Classic" and "Ancient and Modern Sages" are the first products, but this "Disciple Rules" should be read the most, and the reason is ......"

"The book "Language" can be said to be a great ......"

Every book was full of praise, and soon Cheng Yi's interview ended. (To be continued.) )
