The difference between Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty

"Xiao Ling" in Yuanqu refers to a piece of music, which is equivalent to a monotonous word.

Moreover, it is different from the poems of Song Ci, which is also called short tune, which generally means that a word is less than 58 words; Words with 59 to 90 words are called "middle tone", and words with more than 90 words are called "long tone", not "poetry".

But the so-called "poem" in the song doesn't count as words. As long as it is a monotonous song that expresses a complete meaning, it is called Xiaoling, such as 100 word "Gui Ling Bai Zi".

Extended data:

The combination of Tang, Song and Yuan is brilliant.

Poetry and songs have been passed down through the ages and reached their peak.

Among the splendid scrolls of Chinese civilization, Tang poetry, Song ci and Yuanqu are the most magnificent chapters and the three peaks in the history of China literature.

Tang poetry is the pinnacle of the development of classical poetry in China, and it is a brilliant treasure in the excellent traditional culture of our Chinese nation.

Song ci is a brilliant giant diamond in the crown of ancient Chinese literature, which has always been called "double unique" with Tang poetry.

Yuanqu is another wonderful literary work after Tang poetry and Song poetry. It first flourished in the northern region, so it is also called "Northern Qu".
