What are the characteristics of Song Ci? 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 topics or wrote prefaces 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.
What's the difference between Tang poetry and Song poetry? The expressions of Tang poetry and Song poetry are different. When writing Tang poetry, you can use rhyme. In addition to metrical poems and quatrains, modern poetry also has strict rhymes, antitheses and words. There is no word limit for ancient poetry, so there are long poems, such as Song of Eternal Sorrow and Pipa. Poets are relatively free and open when creating, which may be related to the top-down openness, freedom and integration of inside and outside in the Tang Dynasty. Song ci is not like this. The early Song Ci came as a song, which is a kind of music literature. The epigraph is actually the name of the song. When a poet writes lyrics, he should write them according to the requirements of the epigraph, and then he can sing along with the song. The Song Ci handed down today is actually a song of that year, which can be said to be popular music in the Song Dynasty.
