Five-character ancient poetry is the orthodoxy of ancient poetry, and many people write it.
Seven-character ancient poetry is not the mainstream of classical poetry, because it originated late. Therefore, the seven-character style is greatly influenced by the seven-character modern poetry.
Five-character ancient poems and seven-character ancient poems are both ancient poems with neat words. There is also a kind of ancient poetry with mixed words, and the length between the lines is different and uneven.
1. The sentence is orderly. Except for words and songs, most of China's classical poems are very neat. For example, the Book of Songs is basically four words, Chu Ci is generally six words plus the word "Xi", and most ancient poems and modern poems are five or seven words. For example, the pigeons of Guan Guansui,
In Hezhou.
My beautiful lady,
A gentleman would like to marry a good girl.
("The Book of Songs")
2. Peace and confrontation
"Ping" and "Nuo" are two major categories of Chinese tones. In modern poetry, poetry and songs, there are quite strict regulations on the use of flat and even words. Some posts must use plain language, and some posts must use plain language. For example:
Spread a secret festival,
Try to send long strips.
(Han Yu: "Chun Xue")
Antithesis means that in a couplet, words with the same position in the upper and lower sentences should belong to the same category, such as "green plums in the east garden and green grass in the west garden". East and West, Nursery and Garden, Plum and Green Grass, Development and Opening are opposites. 3. Words and grammar
Because each Chinese character is basically an independent unit with both form, sound and meaning, and many Chinese characters are polysemous, and the bonding relationship between words is varied, so the words in this bonding poem are extremely complicated and diverse. For example, adding a word after the word "wind" can form many words: charm, scenery, wind and thunder, wind and frost, wind and wind, etc.
Syntactically, due to the characteristics of Chinese (such as lack of morphology and flexible structure, etc. ) and the independence of Chinese characters, in classical poetry, two Chinese characters are often separated or some Chinese characters are moved from the back to the front. Typical is Du Fu's poem "Sweet rice pecks at parrot grains, phoenix perches on old branches". The normal syntax should be "parrot pecks fragrant rice, phoenix perches on old branches"
Ci is a unique poetic style and a new literary style in the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, after a long period of continuous development, it entered its heyday. Ci, also known as Quzi Ci, long and short sentences and poems, is a kind of songs and poems full of feasts. A epigraph is the name of the tone of a word. Different epitaphs have regulations on the total number of words, the number of words per sentence and the level.
Characteristics of words
1. Every word has a musical tone (epigraph). Generally speaking, the tone of a word is not the theme of the word, but only a score. In the Song Dynasty, some poets often added questions or wrote prefaces under the tone of words in order to express the meaning of words. 2. Words are generally divided into two paragraphs (called upper and lower paragraphs or upper and lower paragraphs), and few words are not segmented or not segmented.
Generally speaking, the number of words in tones and the length of sentences are fixed and have a certain format.
4. The sentence patterns of words are uneven, and they are basically long and short sentences.
5. The rules of phonology in words are particularly strict, and words should be hierarchical. The tone of each word has its own rules, which are different.
