On the origin of regular script

Regular script is a kind of font in China's calligraphy, which is usually considered as the most formal, standardized and neat font. The origin of regular script can be traced back to the Qin dynasty, when it was called "official script", which was used to write administrative documents and legal documents.

In the Han Dynasty, official script gradually evolved into regular script. It is said that a calligrapher named Yan Zhenqing improved the official script and created a more concise, fluent and beautiful regular script style. Yan Zhenqing's regular script was widely praised and respected, which became the basis for the development of regular script later.

In the Tang Dynasty, regular script was further developed and popularized. Ou Yangxun, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang, calligraphers in the Tang Dynasty, all made great contributions to the development of regular script. The regular script in Tang dynasty was more mature and standardized, which had a far-reaching impact on the later development of calligraphy.

Since the Tang Dynasty, regular script has been one of the most popular fonts in China's calligraphy, and it has been widely used in literature, culture, art and other fields. Today, regular script has become an important part of China culture and one of the most popular calligraphy in the world.
