How to write elegiac couplet

The elegiac couplet is a kind of couplet used to mourn the dead. Used to express the memory of the dead. I think writing elegiac couplets is also very particular. This article will analyze how to write elegiac couplets for friends.

First, how to write the elegiac couplet? 1, the couplet is divided into upper and lower sentences, so pay attention to the contents of the upper and lower sentences. The last sentence is to express the mourning for XXX, and the name of the deceased appears in the first part. The second couplet reflects the condolences expressed by someone's wreath, and the name of the sender appears in the second couplet. It is not good to write in the wrong order or paste in the wrong order.

2. Pay attention to the appellation, reflecting the relationship between the deceased and the wreath. Therefore, the title must be correct and specific. Please refer to: China kinship terms table. Of course, there are friends and teachers and so on. Can be called according to the response relationship.

There are two kinds of signatures, one is individual signature and the other is collective signature. Personal signature is a relationship plus signature. The collective can be the name of the company. If it is a family, it can be the name of the elders or parents in the family to take the whole family to worship: address (referring to the relationship between you and your ancestors) to take the whole family to worship.

4. There are two forms of appellation before and after elegiac couplet: appellation (appellation refers to the relationship between ancestors and you) and mourning appellation. These two are the most common. Generally, it is the spiritual blessing of men and the death of women. The format of the next couplet is the first address: address (referring to the relationship between you and your ancestors), such as holding, holding, weeping, nodding, holding and so on. Of course, under this basic format, it is possible to choose words appropriately, such as: Dear Comrade Lei Feng will live in our hearts forever, and a class in a primary school will be respected. It is good to express your feelings sincerely, but you should choose your words carefully.

5, the writing of the elegiac couplet, the color of the elegiac couplet is generally black on a white background, the font should be unified, it is best to ensure that it is as neat as possible, you can ask someone with good calligraphy to write it to show your respect. In writing habits, in order to show respect for the deceased, the second couplet is sometimes written one or two words lower than the first couplet (note that it is written one or two words lower, not one or two words lower when posted).

Second, what are the precautions for writing elegiac couplets? 1, the era of elegiac couplet. The elegiac couplet is a carrier that reflects social life and expresses people's thoughts and feelings. Therefore, with the changes of the times, the content of the elegiac couplet will change accordingly, such as: "The precious color is silent, the string column is absolutely silent, and the mirror on the Yao platform is empty." This is an elegiac couplet for husbands to mourn their wives in the old days, but it is a bit old-fashioned in modern times.

2. The pertinence of elegiac couplet. Being an elegiac couplet has a strong pertinence, which should conform to the status, identity, sentiment and achievements of the deceased, and even the thoughts and feelings here and now should conform to things and occasions. The elegiac couplet cannot be interchanged and universal, which should be the writing soul of elegiac couplet. For example, Ding Ling cuts the willow spring breeze arm in arm, and when the festival is poor, a song of mulberry stems spreads widely and condenses dust, hurting the snowy night. Women have been shining on the mountains for a hundred years, and even the universal scope of some "universal couplets" is very limited.

The above is the elegy I brought to all my friends. Writing elegiac couplet should not only integrate our true feelings, but also pay attention to related matters in order to write elegiac couplet well!
