What is the level of ancient poetry?

The level tone law is the classification of Chinese characters' tones from the perspective of literary temperament. In ancient Chinese, Chinese characters were divided into four tones: flat, upward, far and cheng * * *. Flat refers to flat voice, which means going up, going down and entering the voice. After the Yuan Dynasty, the entering tone in the north gradually disappeared, becoming the present double tone and four tone, while the flat tone gradually evolved into Yin Ping and Yang Ping. In modern Chinese, the four tones of flat tone, rising tone, falling tone are called new four tones. All tones with flat tones (referring to one or two tones in standard pinyin) are called flat tones, and all tones with rising and falling tones (referring to three or four tones in standard pinyin) are called Legato. Some words belonging to Rusheng in ancient Chinese are now classified as Yin Ping and Yang Ping, but when it comes to Pingping, they should still belong to Ru Ping.

According to this principle, people divide all Chinese characters into two categories: one is flat, the other is flat, and the relationship between them is yin and yang. Flat tones alternately produce rhythm, and rhythm also produces the beauty of Chinese phonology.

Modern people can't even say the words of entering tone. Pinyin is difficult to distinguish, but if you come from the southern dialect area, you can usually distinguish it by dialect. For example, the number one, six and eight, if read in dialect, is a very short tone that cannot be stretched, that is, entering tone. If extended to other words with the same pronunciation, it can be judged as entering tone. And the sound is stuffy. In recent times, the entering tone words were sent to the other three tones (four tones in modern times), and some flat tone words were counted as Nuo tones. This basically solves the problem of leveling.

Pingsheng in ancient Chinese

The tones of ancient Chinese can be divided into four tones: flat, rising, going and entering. "Ping" refers to the flat tone among the four tones, including Yin Ping and Yang Ping. "Wrong" refers to the mistake of four tones, including the upper, lower and middle tones.

According to tradition, a flat tone is a flat tone, a rising tone is a rising tone, a falling tone is a falling tone, and an entering tone is a short tone. In the Ming Dynasty, jade melody was released.

Flat voice, flat road, mo di ang,

The voice above shouted fiercely and strongly:

It's a long way to go, Xiu Yuan,

The urgent voice is short and urgent.

Simply put, the key to equality is "inequality is equality".

Flat and even in modern Chinese

In modern Chinese, there are four tones: even tone, rising tone, rising tone and falling tone.

In modern Chinese, the tones of ancient "Pingsheng" can be divided into Yin Pingping and Yang Pingping, namely the so-called first and second tones.

In modern Chinese, the tone of the ancient "Shang Sheng" is partly disyllabic and partly Shang Sheng. Shangsheng is the third sound of modern Chinese Pinyin.

In modern Chinese, the tone of "Qusheng" in ancient times is still the fourth tone.

The ancient "Rusheng" tone no longer exists in modern Chinese. It has become a flat tone, a rising tone, a falling tone.

The four tones of modern Chinese are Yin Ping (Shang Sheng), Yang Ping (Second Tone), Shang Sheng (Third Tone) and De Sheng (Fourth Tone).

For example:

BRIC

(flat tone) (rising tone) (rising tone) (falling tone)

In short, among the four tones in modern Chinese, the first and second tones are flat tones; The third and fourth sounds are ligatures.

Judging from the above arrangement, the use of ancient sounds is the law of linking sounds, while the use of modern sounds is inconsistent (at least the law of upper and lower levels is inconsistent). Therefore, when we talk about Lianzhong Pingzhuan in the future, we must first find out whether the creator is based on ancient sound, modern sound or local dialect; Otherwise, it will make a joke.
