The origin and evolution of Chinese characters.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "Cangjie creates words".

Cangjie was very clever and studied more complex note-taking methods from the beginning of knotting ropes. Then he studied figurative accounts, and gradually hieroglyphs were born. As for the legend of Cangjie, it is a cultural knowledge sent down by God to improve the life skills of primitive humans, and in order to be accepted by the people of the time, hieroglyphs were first used, and then gradually evolved into modern writing.

The origin of Chinese characters is an abstract and square-shaped symbol represented by the carved characters on the painted pottery of the Dadiwan site in Gansu Province. The other type is the symbol of the zodiac pictogram represented by the inscription on the oracle bone of the Jiahu site in Henan. The former evolved in an orderly manner into a series of carved symbols on the Jiangzhai village of Lintong in Banpo, Xi'an, and the latter developed into an image on the pottery of Dawenkou.

Chinese characters gradually accumulate from scattered and individual characters, and after reaching a certain number, they become a kind of writing system. According to research, the primitive Chinese characters were produced in the middle of the Neolithic period, and it took nearly 2,600 years for it to develop into a preliminary writing system.

The history of Chinese writing can be traced back to 6,000 years ago, after 6,000 years of history, the evolution of Chinese characters can be simply summarized into five parts, namely sound, shape, image, number, and reason, and the evolution process is: oracle bone script, golden script, small seal, official script, regular script, line script, cursive script.

As the language of the Chinese nation, Chinese characters contain thousands of years of cultural connotation and reflect the national spirit of our country.

As a part of the world's spoken and written languages, Chinese characters have all the functions that a universal language should have, and have considerable advantages, which is the basic role of Chinese characters in history and present, and this is also the last word in the survival and development of Chinese characters from ancient times to the present. Don't you see, how many languages have disappeared in the course of historical development?

The characteristics of Chinese characters are:

Chinese characters have been used for a long time. English and Latin have a long history, but now which ancient English and so on are basically not used now, but Chinese characters are different, we still often quote words and idioms from 2000 years ago, and often use classical Chinese to say a few sentences and write a few sentences, which shows that ancient Chinese has stronger vitality than those words. Since they have been used, Chinese characters have also become part of historical development.

By looking at the words and phrases used by the ancients, you can judge what the ancients were doing and thinking from one side. With the passage of time, the number of words and phrases increases, and through these evolutions, it can be seen what kind of development society has made.

Chinese characters are a category of art, that is, calligraphy. This is something that those pinyin characters simply can't do. Through writing, you can cultivate your self-cultivation, appreciate Chinese characters, and cultivate your sentiments.

Nationally and internationally, if we strengthen the study and standardized use of Chinese characters in China, we can make all levels of society run more smoothly, and can also promote the inheritance and development of traditional cultureThrough this kind of study, you will know that China is very powerful in history (this is not necessarily known to foreigners), and the thought, culture, art, and science and technology in Chinese history are all worth mentioning.
