What does Kangxi dictionary mean?

Kangxi Dictionary is the first programmatic Chinese dictionary in the history of China, which contains a large number of Chinese characters. Among them, Chen is a Chinese character with cultural connotation. In Kangxi Dictionary, Chen is defined as a "rare thing", which refers to precious and rare things, or works of art, utensils and so on. In ancient times, this word was often used to describe the exquisite pen and ink, porcelain or jade used by literati.

As a cultural vocabulary, "Chen" has far-reaching cultural connotation and historical value. In ancient China, princes and nobles paid special attention to rare collections, among which Chen was one of the representatives, and was regarded as extremely precious and important items. In addition, in terms of culture and art, Chen also has a wide range of applications and values in ancient art fields such as calligraphy, painting and sculpture.

With the changes of the times and the progress of culture, Chen's value has been endowed with new connotation and significance in modern society. People pay attention to precious materials, high-quality works of art and luxury goods, but the cultural spirit and tradition represented by Chen still have an irreplaceable position. Today, Chen guides us to cherish traditional cultural heritage, innovate cultural forms and promote cultural development and progress.
