Regular script, also known as official script and original script, is a common font in China's calligraphy. This font is characterized by square shape and straight strokes, and can be used as a model, hence the name.
Regular script evolved from ancient official script. There are few official scripts left in the early regular script, which are long horizontally and short vertically. Some time before and after the Northern Wei Dynasty, the era of regular script was very sexy, and the artistic personality was also varied.
Kai, originally the name of a tree, is Pistacia chinensis with sparse and unyielding branches, which leads to the meanings of "righteousness", "model", "fa" and "regular script", which means that regular script actually refers to those neat books. No matter what era, all neat calligraphy at that time can be described as regular script.
