Chinese characters are the carrier of Chinese civilization for five thousand years. They are not only a kind of characters, but also a kind of cultural accumulation and inheritance, which has advantages in information transmission that pinyin characters do not have. First, the holographic nature of information transmission. Hieroglyphs express meaning not only through words, but also through shapes. Second, the accuracy of information transmission. The uniqueness of Chinese characters can accurately express information. Third, the aesthetic advantages of Chinese characters. Chinese characters can achieve the effect of both form and meaning when transmitting information, so Chinese characters have calligraphy, and pinyin has never heard of calligraphy.
The names of Chinese characters are not accurate. We are nationals of China people, and our culture is China culture. Qin Shihuang wrote the same book, and Han was just a passer-by in the history of China. How can our words be Chinese characters? In the Zhou Dynasty, China people had advocated "loyalty". "Zhong" implies three views of China people. So the correct name should be Chinese.
After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Qing government signed "treaty of shimonoseki", which humiliated the country and shocked the whole country. Kneel in front of foreigners, thinking that all foreigners' things are good. China lags behind. In order to modernize, we must bow to foreigners. Dung Qing, like Lu Xun, actually suspects that the Chinese nation is an inferior nation and that China culture is a cannibal culture. Such people should die young.
Chinese has three advantages, which are incomparable to other languages.
First, Chinese is three-dimensional in form, sound and meaning. Other words have only two dimensions: sound and meaning. Three-dimensional characters are more conducive to thinking and more detailed expression.
Second, when three-dimensional characters encounter new things, they can be broken down and combined into new phrases, and there is no need to create new words. Second-dimensional figures encounter new things and must create new words to deal with them. In the era of information explosion, every time you create a new vocabulary, you need to learn and remember, which will make your brain overwhelmed. There is no connection between the technical terms of the disciplines. It will cause a language gap between disciplines. So it will hinder the integration between disciplines. Chinese, there is no need to recite new words, and there is no language barrier between disciplines. It is of great help to the integration of science in the future.
Third, Chinese is tangible, so more cultural information can be attached. For example, the word "zhong" can imply three views. "Shuowen Jiezi": "Han people are also inside. From mouth to mouth. " . It is a normal pattern for seeds to take root and germinate in the shell. The mouth indicates the shell of the seed, and the upper part indicates that the seed takes root and germinates. Seeds take root and sprout, pointing to the inside of the shell is the center. This explains the image of Chinese characters in Oracle Bone Inscriptions. Not flags, but branches and roots. This is a hint and understanding is relative. Relative to the middle in the shell, relative to the core in the shell is the center. Length, height, beauty and ugliness, and quality are all relatively compared, and what kind of comparison will produce what kind of views. This is a cognitive point of view.
The central kernel of a seed is the kernel. Everyone is benevolent. Heaven and earth love people, parents love me, and I and my external love will have a world. We come from charity and will follow it. What is our benevolence and love and what our world will be. This is the outlook on life.
Kindness is the core of human nature. Things increase in value because of kindness and depreciate because of unkindness. Good and bad are identified and distinguished by kindness. Kindness is a truly universal value in the world.
Therefore, understanding the word "zhong" is not only to understand the characters, but also to cultivate and establish three views. The culture behind Chinese is profound, which is just an example. Chinese, in particular, is a paradigm writing. American scientist Kuhn's scientific revolution said: Western languages are unscientific and need a scientific revolution. I think China people have probably realized his "scientific revolution". Chinese will be the ultimate choice for the unification of human languages in the future.
People in China regard words as children. Children expand our body genes. Words expand our ideological space.
Abolishing Chinese is like castration. Without Chinese, China culture would be lost. The Chinese nation will become a rootless nation. In China, everyone should protect their works.
That is the soul of the Chinese nation!
Regarding the abolition of Chinese characters, let's first understand the historical background of the abolition of Chinese characters. After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Qing government signed "treaty of shimonoseki", which humiliated the country and shocked the whole country. Enterprising patriotic intellectuals believe that the reason for China's backwardness is that Chinese characters are difficult to write and remember, which affects the popularization of education and leads to the backwardness of the country. Tan Sitong took the lead in calling for the abolition of Chinese characters and the use of pinyin. Since then, people from all walks of life have responded and produced dozens of pinyin schemes. At that time, the whole country was not unified.
1949 after the founding of new China, the scheme of popularizing putonghua and hanyu pinyin based on Beijing department. Form the pinyin scheme we are using now. After the implementation of the Pinyin Scheme, simplified characters greatly promoted education in China, and illiteracy was eliminated in China. Pinyin plays an important role in popularizing education and promoting the informatization of Chinese characters.
With the strengthening of China's national strength and the general improvement of its education level, people have re-recognized the cultural value of Chinese characters.
First, Chinese characters are the carrier of China's 5,000-year-old civilization, which is related to the cultural inheritance. Protecting Chinese characters means protecting Chinese civilization.
Second, Chinese characters are unique hieroglyphics, which have produced calligraphy art in the long-term development and evolution of Chinese characters. Calligraphy art is a treasure of China culture, which affects the whole world and is an important part of China's cultural self-confidence.
Third, although Pinyin is easy to learn and remember, it cannot meet the requirements of vocabulary growth in the information explosion era because of the inconsistency of homophones. So it can only be used as an auxiliary tool for Chinese character learning.
To sum up, it is the best method to give priority to Chinese characters, supplemented by pinyin. The transformation from abolishing Chinese characters to protecting Chinese characters is actually a transformation of China countries from poverty and backwardness to national prosperity, which is a manifestation of Chinese cultural self-confidence.
In ancient civilization, Chinese characters are the only efficient characters that evolved from graphic characters to hieroglyphics, then from hieroglyphics to abstract characters, and finally simplified.
Graphics, hieroglyphs, abstract characters, simplified abstract square characters
This is the highest development of human characters, otherwise Chinese characters will have strong vitality and inheritance.
No matter in history or in modern times, Chinese characters have a perfect connection with many languages. In modern dialects, such as Cantonese, Minnan, Fuzhou and Hakka, there are great differences in grammar and vocabulary, but they can still be perfectly expressed in Chinese characters.
In ancient Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and so on, Chinese characters were used to write perfectly. Even in East Asia and Southeast Asia, Chinese characters can still be used for barrier-free communication.
At the same time, Chinese characters have a strong historical inheritance, connecting the languages of different dynasties in the history of China. In the history of China, the Han nationality survived several times, which still ensured the continuity of culture.
What are the possible consequences of abolishing Chinese characters?
1 historical fragmentation
If Chinese characters are abolished, young people in China will easily lose their cultural identity with history. They will have no way to understand the development of China's ancient history from the text.
When foreign media preached China culture to Chinese people for less than five thousand years, Chinese people didn't believe it. The reason is that the inheritance of China characters can enable people of different cultural levels to realize cultural inheritance. Therefore, China talents are not so easily deceived.
2 Different dialect groups will also have a sense of identity.
Dialects in different parts of China are equally different if they are expressed by phonetic notation. Differences between European languages. Take Minnan dialect, Guangzhou dialect and Fuzhou dialect for example, there are great differences in grammar and pronunciation. If you write in phonetic notation, you can't see the logical connection of these three languages at all, and even the grammar will be very different.
Without the connection of words, if scholars with ulterior motives in the world say that people who advocate your different languages are different people, and then divide you internally, the younger generation will be easily tempted to have two minds.
Therefore, Chinese characters are the most important weapon to connect the cultural identity of people in different dialects and maintain the Han nationality.
3 Ethnic minorities' recognition of Greater China
In China, ethnic minorities who use Chinese characters very much agree with China. The so-called ethnic differences are only different from the Han nationality in culture and welfare. Ethnic minorities have become synonymous with enjoying more state welfare.
Those who can be exploited by foreign separatist forces are often ethnic minorities who do not use Chinese characters. Once Chinese characters are abolished, it is easy to split the nation and the consequences are unimaginable.
4 Homophones Homophones can't be expressed normally
This is the smallest side effect, not worth mentioning at all.
In a word, it is not advisable to abolish Chinese characters.
As the only graphic text in the world that has successfully evolved into abstract text, its cultural value is immeasurable.
As an important weapon to maintain the unity of Chinese culture, its political value is immeasurable.
Chinese characters are the totem of the Chinese nation, the development history of Chinese civilization and the inheritance of China traditional culture. It has become the cultural heritage of mankind. Can't be abolished. The cleverness of China people is inseparable from Chinese characters. Only by constantly developing them!
Answer: Chinese characters were written by the ancients with blood, sweat and tears. Every Chinese character has its origin and practical significance. It can also be said that it was written with the life of the human soul, and it was also engraved on the popular version. Thank you.
China's Chinese characters originated from the myth of Shennong in Cang Xie. Oracle Bone Inscriptions, seal script, small seal script, big seal script, flower, bird and insect seal script, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script have been passed down for more than 5,000 years. China's Chinese characters are unique in sound, form and structure. In China, whoever destroys Chinese characters will destroy himself.
