When pasting Spring Festival couplets, the upper and lower couplets are pasted at the beginning of the horizontal batch and at the end of the horizontal batch.
the suffix of the upper couplet is silent, and the suffix of the lower couplet is flat.
Spring Festival couplets, also called door pairs and door pairs, are divided into upper couplets, lower couplets and horizontal couplets, which belong to a kind of calligraphy couplets. When posting Spring Festival couplets, many people can't tell which is the upper couplet and which is the lower couplet. In fact, this is very simple. Just read the content and you will know that if the last word of each couplet is three or four, it is the upper couplet. If it is one or two, it is the lower couplet.
For example, the antithetical couplets say that people live longer in sunny days, and spring is full of dry kunfu. Among them, the four characters of Shouzi are the upper part, and the two characters of Menzi are the lower part. The same is true of other couplets. Since the Spring Festival couplets are posted, they should be in the form of calligraphy. You can't just post them, but you should clearly distinguish the upper and lower couplets. Under normal circumstances, the first couplet should be posted on the right side of the door, and the second couplet should be posted on the left side of the door, from right to left. The order of horizontal approval is also best from right to left, which is just the opposite of the order of modern people, because couplets are arranged vertically.
knowledge about couplets
couplets should not only express complete and unified semantics in poetic and concise language, but also be reflected in neat and ingenious forms and beautiful and harmonious rhythms. Neat form and graceful rhythm are the most prominent features of couplets. Specifically, a good couplet should meet the following requirements:
1. The number of words is equal
This is the basic requirement of couplets, and it is also the premise of neat couplet form.
2. Part of speech is relative
, that is, a word in the upper part corresponds to a word in the lower part, a word in the upper part corresponds to a word in the lower part, and a phrase in the upper part corresponds to a phrase in the lower part. At the same time, the words in the corresponding positions should have the same part of speech. Namely noun to noun, verb to verb, adjective to adjective, adverb to adverb and so on.
