The origin of Chinese characters

You asked the question of the ancient book version. Before woodblock printing appeared, ancient books could only be copied by hand in order to circulate. Of course, most fonts are regular script ("regular script" here refers to regular script in a broad sense, including the bamboo and silk official script used in the Han Dynasty). The earliest woodcut printed books found now are Buddhist scriptures in the Tang Dynasty. Because manual copying is low in cost and easy to make mistakes, block printing has become popular. In this way, for the convenience of carving, sculptors gradually invented a new font, which is characterized by square, thin and straight. There is a small triangle decoration at the corner. This font is more standardized than regular script and becomes a standard font, which is suitable for large-scale lettering. This is undoubtedly a new font evolved from regular script for the convenience of engraving books. Because this font was widely used in block-printed books after the Song Dynasty, people later called it "Song Style". In the past, it was thought that Song typeface began to appear and be used in the Song Dynasty. What needs to be explained now is that in recent years, the ancient books publishing house did not first appear in the Song Dynasty, but slightly earlier than the Song Dynasty. Actually, this has nothing to do with Song Qi and Qin Gui.

After the Song Dynasty appeared in history, its characteristics were fixed and used until modern times, until the emergence of mechanized printing industry. In modern printing, the distinction is more detailed, and the words with the same width horizontally and vertically are made into "imitation song style", and the words with thin horizontal and thick vertical are made into "old song style". The originator of Song Dynasty sounds regrettable: it is generally believed that the traitor Qin stewed it.

Revision: Qin Gui, a traitor in the Song Dynasty. * * * Reference:

The popular carved fonts of Chinese characters. The font is square, thin and straight. Because it is different from the imitation song style with fine horizontal and vertical dimensions, it is called the old song style. Also known as pine nuts.

As for Song Qi: (998 ~ 106 1) Amethyst was born in Song Anlu. When I was a scholar with my brother, my name was Daxiaosong. Tired of being an official for Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, I visited Academician Hanlin for more than ten years and wrote Notes of Song Wenjing. Death scene.

There is no information about Song Qi's invention of Song Hippo Chef. I hope some seniors can find it. Song was invented, but because he was a traitor, later generations called him Song instead of Qin. Because he comes from the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, the origin of the Song name is because the inventor was from the Song Dynasty.
