It is to improve the literacy rate of the public, because there are many strokes in traditional Chinese characters and it is too complicated to learn. To promote the popularization of traditional culture among the people, after all, Chinese characters are an effective tool to spread the traditional culture of China, and it is helpful to realize this goal that Chinese characters with simple structure and easy to understand are easy to identify.
It is a fixed font structure of Chinese characters. Without simplifying the previous Chinese characters, many words are often written in several ways, which is easy to cause cognitive confusion for people with little literacy. In order to meet the requirements of Chinese character informatization, it is convenient to encode Chinese characters into the computer and output them by the computer.
These four purposes make the simplification of Chinese characters a trend, which people generally expect. Simplified Chinese characters have played a very important role in the development of all walks of life.
Although simplified Chinese characters have many advantages in recognition, writing, typesetting and printing, and text communication, simplified Chinese characters are not suitable for traditional calligraphy art.
Calligraphy is a graphic visual art, which embodies the beauty of lines, shapes, structures and verve of Chinese characters. Chinese characters are always the skeleton and soul of calligraphy. If calligraphy is divorced from Chinese characters and only lines have no stroke structure, it is definitely not calligraphy, but will only become an abstract painting.
First, the shape and structure of the font itself are beautiful and symmetrical. At this point, most Chinese characters meet this requirement. Because most Chinese characters belong to hieroglyphics, and hieroglyphics belong to hieroglyphics, they maintain the advantages of beautiful shape and harmonious structure of hieroglyphics.
