What is the most difficult word to write in the world?
What is the most difficult word to write in the world? This question is not difficult to answer, it is Chinese characters. Lu Xun said that Chinese characters are the most difficult to recognize and write in the world. Not only foreigners regard the handling of Chinese characters as "the most difficult thing in the world", but even no one in China dares to say that he has recognized all Chinese characters and written them well. So what is the most difficult word to write in Chinese characters? Some calligraphers think it is the word with the most strokes, while others think it is the word with the least strokes. Although Li Hongzhang, a great scholar in Qing Dynasty, was not a master of calligraphy, he had another remark on writing, saying that "the most difficult word to write in the world is your own name". Maybe someone will ask: How is your name the most difficult word to write in the world? Everyone has learned to write since childhood, and the name is "compulsory course". Because he often writes, he must write skillfully and beautifully. Moreover, many people, especially prominent people, regard signature as an important thing and are willing to write down their names. Their calligraphy level is comparable to Shu Tong and Qigong. During the "Cultural Revolution", some leading cadres from workers, peasants and soldiers were experts in writing their names on documents, although they could not write many big characters. There is a cross talk that satirizes some leading cadres who can't recognize anything but their own names and write nothing. Although this is a literary creation, it is not divorced from reality. Nowadays, some movie and television stars are willing to spend money to have their autographs designed in order to leave their names for "groupies". They think that when people look at their signatures, they will worship themselves as "cultural celebrities". Why did Li Hongzhang say that "the most difficult word in the world is your own name"? In fact, the difficulty he said is not the stroke shape of the name, but the weight of the name is too heavy. Heavy, responsibility also. As an adult in the main hall, Li Hongzhang was also the minister of Westernization and the governor of Zhili, and was the pillar of the Qing government. His name "private" stands for himself, but "public" stands for the governor and even the court and emperor. What is the weight? He signed a "traitorous treaty", which is really a billion dollars! As soon as his name is signed, it not only means that tens of millions of taels of silver have been handed over to the East (West), but also means the loss of sovereignty, the division of territory and the loss of people's hearts, and the decline of the country ... It is conceivable that when Li Hongzhang signed those "traitorous treaties", he would never "write like a god" but write like a "rope". Li Hongzhang's name is not only "difficult to write", but also "ugly" and "ugly"-almost synonymous with "traitor", which has been reviled since his death. In fact, to restore the true colors of history, Li Hongzhang signed those "traitorous treaties" on behalf of others, which was accepted by others. The reason why he lamented that "the most difficult word to write in the world is his own name" may be precisely the unspeakable secret in his heart. It seems that being able to recognize his name is the most difficult thing to write in the world, that is to say, he can weigh the weight of his name and has the self-knowledge of "unbearable weight". Throughout the ages, how many people have such self-knowledge as Li Hongzhang? Many people think their names are the best handwriting in the world. In order to make themselves "immortal", some celebrities and dignitaries signed inscriptions for places of interest, natural attractions and engineering buildings everywhere, thinking that they were adding luster, but it was actually visual pollution. Some corrupt officials regard their names as a symbol of power, sign documents at will, trade power and money and seek personal gain for themselves. Hu Changqing, a big corrupt official, writes well. Although his name is not as valuable as Li Hongzhang's, it is also worth a lot of money, which has brought him many benefits. Once the name is stained with fame and fortune, it will make this person's name "obsessed", greedy and complacent, and think that his name is the best word in the world. People have different opinions on whether a person's name is difficult to write or easy to write. This paper quotes the deeds of Li Hongzhang, a great scholar in Qing Dynasty, and draws the profound truth that "the most difficult word to write in the world is one's own name", pointing out that the difficulty in writing a name lies not in the shape of strokes, but in the weight and responsibility of the name. It only plays the role of proving the argument and gives people profound enlightenment.
