1. A 350-word essay on one of my favorite Chinese characters, written by myself
Chinese characters are a symbol of Chinese culture and a characteristic of China. From oracle bone inscriptions to Chinese characters, it only takes one A single stroke of the pen can create its magical appearance.
Among the countless Chinese characters, I like the word "家" the most.
Look! Isn’t the structure of the word “家” very unique? The bottom one is the vertical hook, one is the vertical hook, and the other is the right of the vertical hook. Doesn't it form a "tree root"? This "root" is mother. If a family is compared to a big tree, then isn't the "root" the mother? In this family, it is my mother who constantly instills "nutrition" into my father and me, and prepares delicious food and beautiful clothes for us, so that my father and I can eat well and dress well. Give us all the good things in the world.
Doesn’t the top dot of the word "家" plus a treasure hijab form a huge "canopy"? The abbreviation of this "canopy" is Dad. In life, dad protects us from wind and rain. When danger comes, it is dad who steps forward. Dad is like the lush canopy of a big tree, protecting my mother and me. It is dad who tells us new information every day. Dad protected us from wind and rain while collecting news for us, ensuring that the family could breathe the fresh breath of the outside world every day. This is something that my mother who is busy taking care of the house all day long and my immature self cannot understand.
The horizontal line in the middle of the word "home" is the young me, which is the most important center. I am like a small branch growing on a tree trunk. It is very fragile and seems to break if it is blown by the wind. It is precisely because I am a weak child that my parents take good care of me and treat me as the apple of their eye. As a young child, I couldn't help my mother and father much in terms of labor. The only thing I could do was to help my parents relieve their boredom every day. My efforts were not in vain, and the family was happy all day long. We have a father who protects us from wind and rain, and a mother who provides us with nutrition. With such a happy family, should we be satisfied?
This seemingly simple word actually contains such a beautiful meaning! Home is the harbor of happiness, home is the safest and most beautiful place in the world! Among the thousands of Chinese characters, I like the word "家" the most. Regardless of the appearance of the word "home" or its profound connotation, I think they are the most heart-warming!
Family is the cell of society. If families can be harmonious and beautiful every day, then our society will be full of vitality. Our family needs to be supported together. 2. (Essay) Requirements: Please use "Happiness" as the title, start with any of the following paragraphs, and continue writing
Taste happiness Happiness is like a cup of light tea. Although you are in it, you must savor it carefully Only by tasting it can you feel the sweetness.
In the blink of an eye, the day for the additional physical education test is coming, and my running results are not satisfactory, so of course I feel very anxious. So, I started to implement my training plan: run two laps after school every day.
This seemingly simple plan is not easy to implement. Because I usually exercise too little, if I increase the amount of exercise all of a sudden, I will of course feel uncomfortable: cough, headache, and body aches.
So, I started to back off. After school, I came to the playground and saw my father who was already waiting there.
I walked over reluctantly. I wanted to tell him what I thought, but I swallowed the words as they reached my lips. Because I know that this is impossible for my "stubborn" father.
I had to walk to the starting line and take a deep breath to shake off my frustration. "Get ready - run!" my father said seriously.
I rushed out of the starting line and rushed towards the elusive finish line. The first 100 meters went smoothly, but after running through the curve, all kinds of pain came up.
I tried hard to adjust myself, but the worst thing is, not only did I fail to adjust well, but I also added another trouble: insufficient oxygen supply. As a result, my brain swelled, my legs became weak, and my speed naturally slowed down a lot.
"Run! Run!" My father's urging came to my ears like a military order. I got an idea and quickly accelerated.
But I am still complaining in my heart: Humph! I'm so tired and you let me run! But after thinking about it and doing it, I finally speeded up. After running 600 meters, I realized: it's time to sprint. I took a deep breath and tried to speed up, but my legs felt like lead water. No matter how hard I tried, it was to no avail.
I shook my head and thought: It’s over now! Just when I was about to give up, a fat figure suddenly flashed in front of me. What? It's the father.
I saw him waving to me, indicating that I should catch up with him, and then he ran quickly. I gritted my teeth and ran towards him, getting closer and closer.
Finally, I ran behind him and chased him. I stared at my father's figure, and this ordinary figure suddenly became taller.
This figure seems to be a navigation light on the turbulent sea, bringing me hope; this figure seems to be a signpost in the deep jungle, bringing me confidence; this figure seems to be A clear spring in the boundless desert brings me motivation. Under the leadership of this figure, I forgot the pain and resentment, and finally rushed to the finish line, the finish line I had longed for.
When I was resting, several heavy coughs struck my heart. When I looked back, it turned out that my father had caught a cold because he ran too fast just now.
I realized that my father had already worked all day and was still dragging his tired body to lead the way for me. A warm current rushed through my body.
I closed my eyes and tasted it carefully. oh! This is the warmth of happiness! I stood quietly, savoring it carefully, and melted into the warm current together... What is happiness? Happiness is not as majestic as the mountains or as majestic as the sea, but it is warm and beautiful.
As long as you savor it carefully, happiness is by your side. Ordinary happiness lives in the depths of the forest with a rabbit family, father, mother, sister, and brother. An ordinary family performs warmth, Sweet, colorful life. The wind passes by here, carrying the fragrance of flowers towards the distance; the sun is flying here, and the trees are singing and dancing here. Whenever the sun climbs on the branches, Grandpa Rabbit, Sister Rabbit, and Brother Rabbit She is always immersed in dreamland, with the alluring aroma coming from her nose, and she feels suddenly hungry for some reason. The greedy Sister Rabbit is always the first to rush forward and devour it, complaining while eating, "It's too much." I’m so full that I can’t eat anymore. I won’t eat anymore!” Father Rabbit and Mother Rabbit looked at each other and smiled. It's not hard to see a restless rabbit.
He is so naughty. Looking at his large-scale actions and careless words, it really makes people love and hate him.
He is Sunshine’s rabbit brother. Father and Mother Rabbit love their children the most.
Watching Brother Rabbit perform dangerous actions every day makes me nervous; seeing Sister Rabbit being too indulged in books, reminds her to protect her eyes. Looking at this family, it seems to remind me of something - isn't this just like my family! Unhappy families are "every family has its own suffering", but happy families are similar.
Although my family background is ordinary, happiness often arises from the ordinary. We should cherish this happiness that is within reach.
Happiness is negative, as long as there is no pain, it is happiness. Isn't it? ——Inscription Happiness really exists around us.
In the past, I stubbornly believed that it was not the case, and often lamented in frustration: I have not forgotten happiness, but happiness has forgotten me. Misfortunes, setbacks, difficulties, pain, ups and downs.
I silently gritted my teeth and persisted, but secretly complained in my heart: God is so unfair, and the goddess of happiness always forgets to fulfill her duty of "everyone is equal" and sleeps in secretly. Even in order to find the so-called happiness, I looked through the mountains in front of me, regardless of the sweat, tears and wounds I had shed.
It wasn’t until I saw the sea behind the mountain and unintentionally opened my pocket that I realized, dumbfounded, that happiness was all around me. Recommend a short story about happiness. I am deeply touched every time I read it. I saw a story like the one below, which happens to be a topic related to happiness, so I took note of it.
A puppy saw that the little animals in the forest were happy every day, but it could not find its own happiness. So it asked its mother, what is happiness? The puppy's mother smiled and said: "Silly boy, happiness is your tail.
"
Since then, the puppy has always tried to bite its own tail. But many days have passed, and it has found that it can only keep spinning in circles every day.
It Very distressed. The puppy asked: "Mom, why can't I catch happiness even though I try so hard? The dog’s mother said: “My child, aren’t you very happy during this time?” "The puppy said: "I don't know what happiness is, but I am very happy. "
The mother dog said: "My child, this is happiness. "Happiness is like a puppy's tail. When you want to catch it, you can't catch it.
However, when you walk forward happily and with your head held high, you inadvertently look back. , only to find that happiness is following you obediently. It is actually easy to have happiness. As long as you have a happy and grateful heart, you can catch the tail of happiness inadvertently. 3. Me and language. Composition of 350 words
China is a country that stands in the east and has a civilization as brilliant as a galaxy for five thousand years.
Since the time of the Yellow Emperor, there have been Cangjie oracle bones, which foreshadow the historical development. Lifeline. Since then, the Chinese have had a way to express their thoughts, which is no longer barbaric, but the blood of a nation. With written language, human beings have a soul.
Language is the essence of a country. With it, history will shine. Knocking on the door of language, it has been a long journey from learning English as a child to being a junior high school student who speaks "River East".
< p> Every footprint is a trace of my growth. I remember when I was in the first grade, the teacher asked me to recite the song "Goose Goose" by Wang Changling, "Goose Goose, bend your neck to sing to the sky."" Before I could finish memorizing, there was a burst of laughter. The teacher also frowned in dissatisfaction and said: "How can you change ancient poems whenever you want? Then China is not in chaos. Set up? "My face instantly turned red and I vowed to standardize my language! At that time, a small seed was planted in my heart.
However, when I was in sixth grade, I faced the entrance examination. With the double pressure of graduation and facing piles of papers every day, what should I do? It seemed that I could only work on my homework. As a result, I was "invited" to the office by the Chinese teacher the next morning.
"xxx, why don't you do it? There are a lot of typos, and the word "xi" is written wrong again..." Chinese characters are made up of strokes one by one. There is no elegance and unrestrainedness in English, and there is no deep thought in Russian. Tight, one wrong stroke will make a joke. The profoundness of Chinese characters and the heroic and affectionate Chinese language are like a tightly entangled Chinese knot, which binds the people of fifty-six ethnic groups. Combining them firmly and standardizing them is equivalent to standardizing the dignity of the entire nation. Use Mandarin, write civilized characters, and be civilized people.
With these, I believe that the future of the Chinese nation is bright. Bright. 4. An essay on language of 350~400 words
In our lives, language is essential. The common language in my country is Mandarin. , a large country with a multi-ethnic population and multiple dialects. The promotion of Mandarin is conducive to enhancing communication among various ethnic groups and regions, and is conducive to maintaining national unity and enhancing the cohesion of the Chinese nation. It can be seen how important Mandarin is in our lives.
I remember one time. The sun was shining brightly, and the whole earth slowly lit up with her bright smile. It was so refreshing in the morning. p>
Suddenly, I had an idea and asked my grandma to go to my aunt's house to play alone. Grandma agreed. Then, I went to my aunt's house alone in a good mood.
When I came to my aunt's house, I saw my cousin still sleeping like a lazy pig. After a while, my godmother called me and said, "Jiaojiao," If the ball is violated! "Since I have been speaking Mandarin for a long time, I have forgotten the dialect of our hometown, so I heard it as "the softball can't be found." Then I started looking for the softball. Then, my cousin woke up and asked me what I was doing. I said, “Look for a softball! "We don't have softball at home!" "Then my cousin went to ask my godmother. It turned out that my godmother asked me to have breakfast! Oh! I'm so stupid! Then I went to have breakfast. At noon, my godmother was boiling water, and I was down there Playing with my cousin.
Later, my godmother said: "Jiaojiao, please help me with the tenderness of the world!" After hearing this, I quickly ran to the warehouse, like a rabbit, took the tenderest and freshest radish and handed it to me. For fuck grandma. At this time, the cousin on the side asked in confusion: "Why are you getting a radish?" I said: "Didn't my godmother tell me to get a radish?" "She asked you to get a hot water bottle." "Ah! "I screamed, "Oh my God! I heard it wrong!" The cousin standing aside laughed, her face turned red like a big red apple, and my godmother seemed to understand but not understand. , and also laughed with his cousin. It seems that when I go to my aunt's house in the future, I will ask my cousin to be the translator!
Speak Mandarin well to make it easier for you, me and others. If you don't learn Mandarin well, it will be difficult for you to communicate with others. I believe that Mandarin will not be far away from us, and will no longer be unfamiliar. You must know: "The four seas have the same sound, and we are all united!" Therefore, we primary school students must start from me, learn and speak Mandarin well, and build our prosperous country. nation! 5. Please write an essay with the title of Chinese characters I want to tell you
After this activity, my knowledge of Chinese characters has greatly increased. For example: I know that oracle bone inscriptions were popular in Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. During the year, Wang Yirong discovered it. The Xiaozhuan was popular in the Qin Dynasty. In addition, I also have a great interest in the content of Chinese characters, such as homophonic jokes, couplets, homophonic idioms and word puzzles, etc.
In my eyes, Chinese characters are not rigid symbols. I believe that every Chinese character has a story, a painting, and a history. Learning Chinese characters is approaching the long history of the Chinese nation and touching the beating pulse of more than two thousand years ago.
Moreover, I think Chinese characters should not be abandoned by the world, because some people think that today’s society has entered the technological stage. As long as you use a computer, you can type out any character you want without using Chinese characters. So there is no need to make great efforts to learn Chinese characters, as Chinese characters are already lagging behind. And I think: Chinese characters are a priceless treasure handed down to mankind from ancient times to the present, and they are a unique calligraphy treasure of the Chinese nation. Abandoning Chinese characters is equivalent to killing the two thousand years of historical life that Chinese characters have.
Through Chinese characters, our descendants have learned about the thousand-year history of China and understood the profound connotation of the Eastern Dragon. Here, I want to say to everyone: "We must love Chinese characters and let them continue to be passed down and not let them be lost. Therefore, we must study hard and let Chinese characters set a better record!" 6. 400-word composition about Chinese characters
As I wrote, I was often moved by the square characters in front of me. They are like a group of lively and lovely children joking and playing on the paper, and they are like beautiful and colorful flowers that delight your eyes. At this time, I really couldn't bear to frame them in the square grid. I really wanted to let them leave the grid to stretch and enjoy their own joy without restraint.
Really, they are not rigid symbols, but elves with unique personalities. You see, every word has a different charm. The word "sun" makes you feel the heat and power, but the "moon" shines with clear brilliance. The word "light" makes people feel floating, while the word "heavy" makes people sink at first glance. The word "laugh" makes people happy, while the word "cry" looks like tears. "Lengshuang" seems to exude a cold air. As soon as the word "deep" appears, you seem to have entered a forest or a quiet courtyard. When you write down the word "human", you can't help but stand in awe and marvel at the creation of "heaven" and "earth". These shadowy and invisible pictures, these wonderful combinations of horizontal and vertical outlines, are so similar to the temperament of people. They enter the imagination in an instant, and then flow out of the imagination, leaving only endless aftertaste in the memory. What cute little elves these are! And under the calligrapher's pen, they can produce endless changes, some as tall and straight as a peak, some as clear as a stream, some as vast as the sea, or as smooth as fat. They have a kind of wisdom power in themselves, an imaginary world for you to fly and gallop to your heart's content. In the long history of mankind, which nation has such rich calligraphy treasures as the Chinese nation?
Why is it said that the Chinese nation is a nation of poetry? These beautiful and charming words are born to bring poetic spirituality to those who use them.
Looking at these individual words with color, sound, and smell, how can it not induce you to mobilize the emotions of these languages! There are now a few poets in the West who are pursuing "playing with words", but how can they find the charm of "playing with words" from the combination of 26 letters! Only Chinese characters, tens of thousands of different glyphs, and hundreds of thousands or millions of wonderful combinations are enough to produce the joy of using words, and even beyond semantics, we can seek the imagination that words can have on human thinking and senses. ! Chinese characters are the crystallization of high-intensity understanding and will surely train people’s understanding.
Perhaps, this is somewhat sad. It is said that the kind of training that focuses on understanding will affect science and rationality. So, does it affect people’s concept of time because there is no time change in Chinese characters? Is it because Chinese characters have created so many titles with different origins that China has endless red tape? How amazing that these square characters are actually related to the habits of a nation!
Among the world’s languages, Chinese characters are truly unique. Its creation opportunity shows the Chinese people's unique civilization tradition and way of perceiving the world. But it is powerful and self-contained. It has cultivated a five-thousand-year-old culture with square characters and maintained the existence of a unified country. No matter how many different languages ??there are in this eastern land, how many people speak it? They speak many dialects that are incomprehensible to each other, but the charm of this Chinese character has become the chief conductor of the symphony orchestra!
In the face of scientific leaps, people are lamenting the backwardness of China's technology, and want to seek to get rid of the isolation from the world caused by this hieroglyphics in confusion, so they have issued a soul-shaking call to implement the pinyin of Chinese characters. The cry. Yes, this call once stirred the blood to boiling, but it was a bit naive like Don Quixote attacking the windmill. Chinese characters have proved their existence value with their magnificent and vigorous vitality. It was the computer that accepted the Chinese characters, not the computer that changed the Chinese characters. In the complex state of mind that emerges when science reaches its peak, pinyin characters need to be constantly recreated, to the point of being unbearably cumbersome. However, Chinese characters are rejuvenated and can be easily formed using the original vocabulary. New concepts and terminology. Indeed, Chinese square characters can absorb all kinds of new foreign creations, because it has an ocean of single characters. After people are familiar with this kind of writing, the world of new combinations and creations that can be sought is so broad and simple.
I am a descendant of Yan and Huang, and I grew up drinking water from the Yangtze River. Perhaps, like other ethnic groups, I like to show off my own things. Didn’t Russia’s Lomonosov praise the Russian language in the language of poetry? But I am not a blind defender of tradition. I only admire the creation of human civilization. After I became familiar with some Western literature, I became more and more amazed at the unparalleled creation of Chinese characters.
Ah! Just like wandering under the starry sky on a summer night, mesmerized by the magnificent scenery, I really have an infinite love for Chinese characters, which I rely on for thinking and communication, and I am shocked by its regenerative vitality and unique charm. I think that in the long course of human history, this kind of writing will be increasingly cherished and loved by the world.
My compatriots and friends who use Chinese characters, please develop it and enrich it! History and civilization are casting new eyes on us! 7. In fifth grade, write a 350-word essay on the topic of "Chinese characters"
I love you Chinese characters When I was learning beautiful Chinese characters, I was surprised to find that there are many homophones and polyphones in Chinese characters. .
Although some words have the same pronunciation, they look different. For example: fenfen and fenfen have exactly the same pronunciation, but their appearance is indeed different.
There are also junjun and junjun. The two Chinese characters are very different in appearance and have different meanings. There is also a very magical thing about Chinese characters. Many Chinese characters are exactly the same, but they have many different pronunciations, and each pronunciation has different usage and meaning.
The first polyphonic word I recognized was "乐". There was one thing I liked very much when I was a child, and that was music. And there is another thing I like very much, and that is my name. Bao Leqi, Lelele, means happy. When I was a kid, someone called my name Lele yueyue, which made a joke.
It’s amazing. There are so many polyphones and homophones in beautiful Chinese characters. We must study them carefully.
8. A 400-word essay on my story with Chinese characters. Write three paragraphs. The first paragraph describes the benefits of Chinese characters, and the second paragraph
My story with Chinese characters
When I was very young, When I was young, I heard my father tell such a little story. Once upon a time, there was a man who used too much force while chopping firewood on the mountain. He accidentally dropped his ax and injured a passerby. The injured person died after ineffective treatment. The family members of the deceased went to the Yamen to complain. The defendant panicked and hurriedly wrote a description of the situation: One day when he was chopping firewood, he used too much force and injured someone with an axe. As soon as the government saw it, he sentenced the man (intentional murder) to death. Later, the inspector who was fortunate enough to be inspected here discovered something fishy. He was just exempted from the death penalty for "negligence" and was sent to the border army for three years before returning to his hometown. It can be seen that one word difference can almost lose your life. Chinese characters are really magical and interesting!
Speaking of Chinese characters, I can’t help but think of the past when I discussed Chinese characters with my father. Once, my father said to me: "Yanzi, let me ask you a few words to see if you have learned them?" Then he wrote 戍, 戌, 五, and Rong on the paper. Yo! I bit my finger. This stumped me. Dad smiled at me, and his smile made me feel embarrassed. Dad stopped smiling: "Then let me tell you, this character is pronounced 戍 (shu), this character is pronounced Xu (xu), this character is pronounced Wu (wu), and this character is pronounced Rong (rong). Let's do this, Dad Let me make up a short formula for you: Shu Shu dot Xu xu and horizontal Wu Wu are hollow, and the shape of the cross is Rong Rong. "That's it!" I smiled happily.
I deal with Chinese characters every day. It is also my good friend, and I had many interesting stories with it when I was growing up. Therefore, when we write, we must write square Chinese characters; when we behave, we must be upright Chinese. 9. A composition praising Chinese characters of about 300 words
It has become a natural instinct for Chinese people to respect documents. In ancient times, it was said that famous scholars were descended from the world as literary stars, and the writing paper they used in daily life should be handed over respectfully as "respectful paper" Pavilion" burned down.
When I was a child, I often heard my parents tell me not to trample on newspapers or use paper to cushion seats, for fear of insulting the sacred text. Chinese characters are living entities. Chinese characters have their own origins, evolution and life forms, and cannot be changed at will.
From oracle bone inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, official script to regular script, Chinese characters have gone through a long life and become the easiest characters to write and recognize today. For example, the word "horse" originally appeared in the form of a pictographic picture, but it is impossible to draw the image of "horse" every time it is written.
However, the ancients strived to convey the meaning of words perfectly. After thousands of years of simplification, the words naturally took shape and became a literary style with profound meaning. It is like a living individual that absorbs the essence of the culture of the past and evolves into a look that is universally applicable.
Someone once compared traditional Chinese characters with simplified Chinese characters and found that although traditional Chinese characters have many strokes and are difficult to write, they are highly legible and the meaning can be understood at a glance. Although simplified Chinese characters have fewer strokes, it is not easy to understand the meaning of the characters when they are seen in the eye. Instead, it takes more time to decipher them, causing obstacles and inconveniences. This coincides with the old proverb "Haste makes waste".
Since hieroglyphic characters are not like pinyin characters, they will lose their pronunciation and pronunciation due to the evolution of the times, resulting in the problem of incomprehension between ancient and modern texts. Therefore, Chinese characters are uniquely endowed with the ability to retain their meaning for thousands of generations. Among the world's three major ancient scripts, Babylonian cuneiform and Egyptian hieroglyphics (hieroglyphics) have all shone on the stage of history, but now they have been relegated to museums and can only be remembered by future generations.
Only the Chinese characters of the Chinese nation, after more than three thousand years of ups and downs, are now striding towards the world stage with a majestic attitude that is getting stronger and stronger! Chinese characters are divine writings. Chinese people, more or less, have the traditional sentiment that "only reading is good". Such profound cultural admiration does not arise out of thin air.
Just like the Greek myth of Prometheus stealing fire from the sky, there are also records in ancient times that "Cangjie created characters, rain fell from the sky, and ghosts cried at night." Legend has it that Cangjie was the historian of the Yellow Emperor. He had four eyes and seemed to be able to see different levels and the deeper meanings of things. He was a half-god and half-human figure.
It is said that writing was brought to earth from heaven by Cangjie.
When Cangjie spread words in the world, God was happy to bless him and sent down millet to express the universal celebration; but because the evil demons and monsters knew that humans had words and intelligence, they could no longer fool and control humans. They were so jealous and sad that they held their heads all night long. Cry! Words enlighten holy wisdom, can demons not be afraid? Despite these myths, Chinese characters do have profound and magical connotations.
For example, the word "人" in "regular script" and the oracle bone inscriptions from three thousand years ago are two simple paintings with little change. It's just that the oracle looks like a real person: with his hands hanging on his chest and his waist bent.
This shows China’s “philosophy of life.” Human beings are the most complicated. Even painters would lament that it is easier to draw ghosts than to draw people.
Everything in the world is indeed very complicated, but does life really have to be that complicated? Aren't two simple paintings also life? No matter how complicated the problem is, won't it become simpler if you bend down and apologize? From these two simple paintings, we may be able to comprehend and understand more hidden truths, but what can we see from "human"? I'm afraid even using an electron microscope can't reveal any clues! The Chinese characters lectures by He Yingman and Lin Shanben, who are profound and wonderful in Chinese characters, explained the preciousness and meaning of Chinese characters in a simple and easy-to-understand manner with vivid and interesting stories and examples. Chinese characters are the only characters that can express meaning today. Every stroke of each stroke carries a rich and profound message. The social development status, economic activities, cultural trends of thought, etc. at the time when the characters were created are integrated into the meaning of the characters. It is no wonder that research Some people say that "a Chinese character is a museum"! Chinese characters are a bridge of Chinese culture and exquisite works of art.
As a Taiwanese, I am so lucky to have inherited the writing form of traditional Chinese characters. With such a precious cultural treasure, we hope that people with lofty ideals who care about culture and education can participate together and understand the beauty of Chinese characters.
Walking into Chinese characters is like walking into a museum of Chinese culture, which is enough to make people admire it again and again and never want to leave! .cn/bbs/showthread?postid=1578 There are various legends about the origin of Chinese characters. Ancient Chinese books all say that characters were created by Cangjie. It is said that Cangjie saw a god with a strange appearance, and his face looked like a painting with words on it. Cangjie then traced his image and created words.
Some ancient books say that after Cangjie created writing, millet fell from the sky because of the leak of the secret of heaven, and ghosts and gods cried every night. There is also a legend that Cangjie observed the footprints of birds and animals imprinted on the soil, which inspired him to invent writing.
These kinds of legends are unreliable. Writing is slowly enriched and developed by the working people based on the needs of real life and through long-term social practice.
From the autumn of 1954 to the summer of 1957, Chinese archaeologists excavated the Banpo site (today's north of Banpo Village in the eastern suburbs of Xi'an City) many times and discovered that as early as around 6,000 years ago, the Banpo people lived for a long time. In his life and production practice, he created literal symbols and artistic works such as paintings, sculptures, and decorations. Most of the Banpo people's engraved symbols are preserved on painted pottery, which can be regarded as original Chinese characters.
In recent years, China has discovered a batch of tombs (more than 4,500 years ago) at a site of the late Dawenkou culture in Lingyang River, Ju County, Shandong Province, and a large number of cultural relics have been unearthed. Some pottery statues are each engraved with an image and text, and *** discovered more than 10 single characters.
These characters are depicted according to the shape of the real objects, so they are called "pictographs". The structure of the font is very similar to the pictographic characters on the oracle bone inscriptions, but it is more than 1,000 years earlier than the oracle bone inscriptions.
Therefore, "pictographic characters" are the earliest characters in China, and they already have the characteristics of characters. There are three main methods of forming Chinese characters: pictographic method. This is the earliest method of forming Chinese characters.
