What did our ancestors use when they couldn t write before?

Simplified word ** in cursive, as early as the Sui and Tang dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the folk began to circulate, in order to be different from the regular character and called the vulgar character, just for the convenience of writing, in the formal occasion people still use the regular word, so people at that time can know two or more ways to write a word at the same time. It's like when we work at home, we like to wear casual coarse cloth clothes for convenience, but when we go out to meet guests, we still change into regular and decent silk clothes. This situation lasted for thousands of years, but after the founding of New China, X only allowed people to wear coarse cloth clothes forever and burned silk clothes.

At the end of January 1956, Chinese mainland published the "Chinese Character Simplification Plan", and in May 1964, the "General List of Simplified Characters" was published. There are three tables in the general list of simplified words: the first table is 352 simplified words that are not used as marginals, the second table is 132 simplified words and 14 simplified words that can be used as marginals, and the third table is 1754 simplified words by analogy. In other words, 2,238 new words were completely coined.

So what is the proportion of this word? At present, the mainland stipulates that the commonly used words are 2500 words, and the second most commonly used words are 1000 words, which is 3500 words, plus the professional vocabulary used in all walks of life, there are a total of 7000 words in the "General Word List", which means that you can read all the ordinary books of all professions if you master 7000 words. Seven thousand of two thousand, of course, some characters are not within these seven thousand, but we can roughly descriptively say that this proportion of characters is very large, no wonder it is difficult for people who have not learned simplified characters to recognize the Chinese characters in the mainland now.

Why do we compare simplified characters to coarse cloth clothes and traditional characters to exquisite silk court clothes? Because Chinese characters have simplified the strokes at the same time they have paid a heavy price. Due to the simplification of the strokes, many characters are similar in appearance, and the recognition rate is greatly reduced, so the reading speed is slowed down.

Since people spend countless times more time reading words than writing in their lives, even writers, it is counterproductive on the whole. At the same time, due to the addition of many radicals in simplified characters, the burden of students' learning is increased. These newly created radicals and characters are much more vulgar and ugly in the eyes of calligraphers than traditional characters.

In addition, because many characters with the same sound but different meanings are merged into one simplified character, it often leads to confusion of semantics, and the loss of the inherent etymological relationship of Chinese characters themselves, resulting in structural disorder of the entire Chinese character system. Anyone who has ever used a computer knows that the input speed of traditional Chinese characters and simplified characters is about the same, but due to the addition of a new simplified character system, a search system has been artificially added, which has doubled the trouble. Wouldn't it be good if you didn't simplify the characters and follow the practice of thousands of years in history, and you can use the vulgar style when handwriting, and the regular style for printing?

Why bother looking for nothing to do? In the words of the common people, it is really tofu that has become the price of meat. The theoretical basis for simplifying characters is that, looking at the evolution of Chinese characters, from oracle bone script, golden script to seal script, official script, regular script, line script, and cursive script, the general trend is from complex to simple.

It's in the history books, so go and see it.

The ancestors of human beings were actually fish, and it was only later that there were apes and other animals.

There are many ways to say it, so what kind of expression do you want?

According to scientific investigations, the ancestors of humans were forest apes.

It's people! This can be proved from the prehistoric remains of the past dynasties. It is definitely not Darwin's inference that man evolved from monkeys.

The ancestor of mankind is the "Peking Man". Please refer to it!

Researchers have found evidence that hominins, early human ancestors, used stone tools to cut meat off bones 3.2 million years ago. This is more than 800,000 years earlier than scientists previously discovered that ancient humans first used tools and ate meat.

The bones found in Ethiopia show signs of being stoned and smashing the bones to obtain bone marrow. The study, published in the journal Nature, challenges several ideas about the behavior of our ancestors. The earliest known stone tools used were found near the Gona region of Ethiopia and date back to about 2.5 million years ago.

That discovery points to our more direct ancestor, a type of Homo sapiens, the first to use tools.

However, based on the dating of nearby volcanic rocks, the bones found in the Dikika area with cut marks can be traced back to 3.2 million to 3.4 million years ago. A series of tests have shown that the cuts, scratches and abrasions were left before the bones became fossilized, and more detailed analysis has even revealed that some of the remains of the stone tool remain in the cut marks.

A Brief History of Mankind - From Animals to Homo sapiens.

Originally, the universe was energy, and later energy fluctuated to produce matter, which is the universe and the earth. Earth organisms are slowly transformed (mutated) from single cells to multicellular organisms, monkeys are multicellular organisms... As for where the single-celled organisms come from, it's the same as whether there is a chicken or an existing egg.

There are a lot of things that science can't explain at the moment.

Australopithecus: In four stages.

1) Australopithecus stage. Australopithecus australopithecus has been found to have lived between 4.4 million and 1 million years ago. According to the study of the anatomical features of fossils, the most important feature of Australopithecus that distinguishes it from apes is its ability to walk upright on two legs.

2) Capable person stage. 2,000,000 BC-1,750,000 BC. Homo sapiens fossils have been discovered in Tanzania and Kenya in East Africa since 1960.

The first Homo hoans existed 1.9 million years ago. Homo habilis is classified under the family Homo homo. Homo sapiens had significantly larger brains than Australopithecus australopithecus, and could use stones as materials to make tools (stone tools), which gradually evolved into Homo erectus.

3) Homo erectus stage. Homo erectus belongs to the homo genus homo erectus (homo erectus), referred to as Homo erectus, commonly known as ape-man. Homo erectus fossils were first discovered in 1891 in Java, Indonesia.

At that time, there was also a debate about whether it was a man or an ape. It was not until the 20s of the 20th century that the fossils and stone tools of Peking Man were discovered in Zhoukoudian, Beijing, which established the position of Homo erectus in the history of human evolution. Homo erectus lived from about 1.7 million years ago to more than 200,000 years ago.

To date, Homo erectus fossils have been found in Asia, Africa and Europe.

4) Homo sapiens stage. Homo sapiens is generally divided into early Homo sapiens (ancient Homo sapiens) and late Homo sapiens (modern humans). Early Homo sapiens lived between 200,000 and more than 100,000 years ago.

Late Homo sapiens began about 100,000 years ago. Its anatomy has been basically similar to that of modern humans, so it is also called modern humans in anatomical structure.

Don't listen to them farting. Man's ancestors are man.

Legend is Nuwa, science is an ape, and fantasy is an alien legacy.

It is a fact that God created human beings.

Apes, it's in this history book.

According to the theory of evolution, it should be an ape.

In terms of body size, it is said that it is an ape evolution. If from the intellect it should be a soul transplant.

There are many sayings, but my favorite is the visitor.

DNA analysis confirms that modern human ancestors came from Africa A new study conducted by British scientists confirms that the inhabitants of a small tribe living in southeastern Africa in ancient times were the common ancestor of modern humans. They found that some common DNA was found in the bodies of the oldest inhabitants of Africa and the indigenous populations of Australia and New Guinea.

Ape. Apes began to emerge in the Oligocene, about 30 million years ago. However, not all apes are direct ancestors of humans, and some apes are human"Uncle", some apes are human"Uncle"。

The apes, which anthropologists consider to be the ancestors of humans, appeared very late. It is the Rama ape, named after one of the heroic princes of the ancient Indian epics, Rama (Rama's translation is now unified as Rama). They lived about 10 million to 15 million years ago.

Rama apes were first discovered in Mount Sivalik, India, Pakistan. In the late 60s of this century, Rudaaucus found in the Early Eocene coal seams of Hungary also belonged to Rama ape. In particular, in 1976, a fairly complete mandibular ossification stone of the Rama ape type found in the limeba coal kiln in Lufeng County, Yunnan Province, China, is the most complete and closest to the early ancestor of humans of the same kind found in the world.

The time is also more than 10 million years ago. According to the excavations, the body of Lufeng Australopithecus is the size of a chimpanzee, with a short snout and underdeveloped canine teeth, which is not commonly used by ordinary apes"**"。However, their intelligence is slightly higher than that of other animals, which, combined with their frequent activities in the open ground, prompts them to further divide their hands and feet.

Therefore, it is believed that Lufeng Australopithecus was able to grasp branches or other natural objects with their hands for defense and feeding. In this case, the hands have been divided, and the legs should be able to stand upright.
