In the traditional chronology of cadres and branches, the word "year" is usually not added after cadres and branches, because the word "year" is different from the word "year" in classical Chinese. Moreover, the year of dry support is actually a year, not a year. At the same time, the standard of ancient Chinese characters also requires that adding the word "nian" after the main branch will be repetitive and irregular.
For example, Yonghe is nine years old, with the word "year" after the year number, and the word "year" is added after the main branch to repeat. Therefore, under the premise of following the traditional norms, it is not appropriate to write the word "year" when calligraphy inscriptions use the calendar year. However, some calligraphers with strong personal style may ban the use of the word "year" in their autographs, thinking that such writing does not conform to traditional norms.
means of expression
Therefore, if calligraphers want to use the word "year" in their inscriptions, they can consider adopting some alternative expressions, such as "year in" and "year times", so as to conform to the traditional norms. There is another way to write the modern chronology, that is, directly use the AD chronology. For example, many books written by Qi Gong were signed in this way, but now, in fact, more and more people sign in this way.
The calligraphy inscription in 2024 should reflect the creator, creation time and the spirit of the inheritance and development of calligraphy art. According to traditional customs, the inscription of calligraphy works should include the author's name, creation time (including year, month and day), and sometimes the author's study name or nickname, as well as some words expressing humility.
