First, quantification. Is to determine the number of words used in modern Chinese. It is necessary to conduct a comprehensive and scientific statistical analysis, determine the number of words needed to write modern Chinese, and formulate a complete vocabulary of modern Chinese. 1965, the 6 196 character list in the Printed Chinese Character List jointly issued by the Ministry of Culture and the China Character Reform Commission basically reflects the number of commonly used characters in modern Chinese. 198 1 year, China published the national standard (GB2312-80-80) "Chinese Character Set for Information Interchange? The basic set, with 6763 characters, is the national standard of Chinese character library in computer. During the period of 1988, China published a list of commonly used words in modern Chinese with 3,500 words and a list of commonly used words in modern Chinese with 7,000 words, specifying the number of commonly used words and commonly used words respectively. In addition, a glossary of names, place names, transliteration and other special words needs to be drawn up. Quantifying modern Chinese characters separately can provide scientific basis and standards for common words, general words and special words.
Second, modeling settings. Is to determine the standard form of modern Chinese characters. In the past, the work of simplifying Chinese characters, sorting out variant characters and unifying fonts laid the foundation for the finalization of Chinese characters. The Font Table of Printed Chinese Characters provides a font standard for modern printed Chinese characters. According to the font structure, the number of strokes and the order of strokes determined by the Printing General Chinese Character Font Table, the Modern Chinese General Character List promotes the standardization of fonts. In order to further solve the problem of font differences left over from the future plastic work, it is necessary to realize that a Chinese character can only have one definite shape, but not multiple shapes.
Third, the pitch. Is to determine the standard pronunciation of modern Chinese characters. The standard pronunciation of Putonghua is Beijing pronunciation, but there is abnormal sound in Beijing pronunciation. For example, the word "danger" has two pronunciations: wēi and wéi, and the word "leap" has two pronunciations: yuè and yaoo. This phenomenon is not conducive to communication, so we should choose one pronunciation as the standard pronunciation, and multiple pronunciations cannot coexist. The Putonghua Pronunciation Examination Committee has revised the pronunciations of words with different pronunciations for many times. 1963 published the first draft of the "Three Pronunciation Examination Table for Different Pronunciation Words in Putonghua", which has been revised many times since 1982. 1985, the State Language Committee, the State Education Commission, and the Ministry of Radio and Television reviewed the revised draft, and published the Pronunciation Table of Variants of Putonghua, requiring that the pronunciation and pronunciation of Variants of Putonghua involved in cultural, educational, publishing, broadcasting and other departments and industries throughout the country should be based on this new pronunciation table. In this way, the pronunciation standard of Chinese characters is more clear.
Fourth, sorting. It is to determine the arrangement order of modern Chinese characters and stipulate standardized word search methods. At present, there are five commonly used word search methods: phonetic sequence method, radical method, stroke method, stroke method and number method. Although it is impossible to combine various search methods into one, if there are several sequence standards in the same search method, they should be unified. First, we should standardize the radical method. The number of radicals and the attribution principle of words should be gradually consistent, and the extraction of words containing several radicals should be regular. Dictionaries, the compilation of dictionaries, and the arrangement of catalogues, indexes, files and materials should all have a unified arrangement standard. It is easy to check words in a fixed order.
The standardization of Chinese characters will provide a standard for Chinese teaching, publishing and printing, film and television broadcasting, mechanical processing of Chinese characters and information processing.
