Common and uncommon words

Uncommon characters are Chinese characters that are uncommon and unfamiliar to people. Since the advent of the Internet, some rare words have become popular on the Internet because of their strange shapes. They have become popular in major forums and have been given new meanings. Most of these rare characters are variant characters, also known as Youtai, Ortai, and Chongwen in Shuowen Jiezi. They refer to Chinese characters with the same pronunciation and meaning but different writing methods. It can be seen that variant characters are not equal to traditional Chinese characters.

Since Chinese characters are composed of meaning symbols, musical notes and symbols, the angle at which the ancients selected the meaning symbols varied from person to person. Therefore, the phenomenon of one character with multiple shapes abounds in the history of Chinese characters, and variant characters This phenomenon appears in large numbers in ancient calligraphy works or documents.
