[Traditional Chinese] Virtue and Art Shuangxin
The words "virtue" and "xin" have not changed.
The word "Yi" is Congqi, Congzhi, Congyun (Cong... means composed of...).
The word "double" comes from "鹹", from "鹹", from "you", or from "only" or from "you".
Explanation:
"Perseverance" is the "persistence" in the simplified form of "persistence".
"鹹" is pronounced as "chai", and its literal meaning is "the general name of short-tailed birds". The commonly used word "bird" is the general term for long-tailed birds, but later it was used to refer to various birds. 〖Bird, the general name of long-tailed birds. Pictogram. ——"Shuowen"〗
"Zhi" is equivalent to "only (only one sound)" and is used as a quantifier. Its original meaning is as follows: (Phonetic. Congyou, holding 鹹. Holding one 鹹 means Only, holding two birds means double. Original meaning: one bird) Same as the original meaning [a bird] 〖 Only, one bird. ——"Shuowen"〗
By the way, let me talk about the word "you", please see the explanation:
(Pictogram. The oracle bone character shape is like the right hand shape, and the "right" in the original left and right . The word "you" is mostly related to the movement of the hand. Original meaning: right hand). The same as the original meaning [right hand]. Later made "right"
〖 Also, hand, pictogram. ——"Shuowen"〗 Duan Yucai's note: "This is the right character of Jin." (You can go to Handian website to check the oracle bone and gold inscriptions of the character "you", which indeed looks like a hand)
The word 鹹 means a short-tailed bird, and the word 鹹 means a hand. The first two 鹹 characters on the character mean holding two birds in one hand, which naturally means "a pair".
Chinese characters are actually quite profound. Unfortunately, simplified Chinese characters (called popular Chinese characters in ancient times) have simplified all the mysteries~ And even traditional Chinese characters (called traditional Chinese characters in ancient times) have a very limited mechanism. It is not as good as seal script and other ancient writings. However, the seal script is full of twists and turns, meticulous and rigorous, and it will be difficult for the public to master it if they do not study it systematically.
I guess the poster is planning to create temporary calligraphy, right? An inscription for an old gentleman?
