Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Qian Qianyi was afraid that Zhao Han would misunderstand something, so he went to the General Military Mansion the next day to ask for an interview.

    He was taken into a courtyard in a daze, but saw that the courtyard was full of people.  In addition to Zhao Han, Pang Chunlai, Li Banghua and others, there are also Chen Maosheng, Liu Rushi and many celebrities, and even famous actors and actresses from all over the world.

    "Mr. Yu Shan came just in time, let's sit down and discuss matters together." Zhao Han smiled.

    The personal guard moved a stool, and Qian Qianyi sat down in front of him, not knowing what meeting he was having today.

    Zhao Han explained: "I want to standardize the languages ??of various places, what can Mr. Yu Shan do to implement it?"

    Qian Qianyi replied: "Call together scholars and revise the rhyme."

    ? Zhao Han shook his head and said: "It's not about correct pronunciation and elegant words, but for scholars to communicate with the heads of Guizhou and other provinces."

    "That's impossible!"

    Qian Qianyi was so frightened that he stood up immediately, cupped his hands and said, "General Town, doing this is tantamount to eradicating local sayings. Forcible promotion may cause big trouble."

    "well!"

    Zhao Han sighed.

    Zhao Han has been working on standardizing the language of various places, but the more he understands it, the less he dares to issue orders.

    Forcibly promoting the language of a certain place as "Mandarin" is not only eliminating the dialects of various places, but also overturning the phonological rules of thousands of years in China.

    This is doing right to the scholars all over the world!

    In ancient China, there has always been "Mandarin", namely: Yayan, Zhengyin, and Guanhua.

    The orthodox sounds of the past dynasties are all inherited in one continuous line, and they are all the reading sounds of Luoyang Taixue.

    Luoyang Taixue reading sound, also known as Zhongyuan Yayan.

    It is not a Henan dialect, but a set of pronunciation rules, which regulates pronunciation through Fanqie.

    As long as you have learned this set of rules, no matter whether you are from Beijing, Guangzhou, Chengdu, or Kunming, no matter whether your dialect has four tones, five tones, six tones, or seven tones, everyone can communicate very smoothly!

    This set of rules only restricts the sound category, not the sound value.

    Therefore, the pronunciation of reading in each place will be very different, but they are common to each other.

    This set of pronunciation rules has been an important factor in maintaining the unification of China for two thousand years, and its great role is not inferior to the unification of writing.  It can integrate various dialects into the same system. In the ancient society without radio and television, this is the most convenient and effective means of phonetic notation.

    What Zhao Han has to do now is to break it!

    Having said so much, you may not understand it, so it must be more intuitive.

    ? Modern Chinese is a secondary institution: Putonghua-Dialect.

    In ancient times, it belonged to a three-level structure: the rules of Yayan - the pronunciation of reading in various places - the dialect of each place.

    Chen Maosheng said suddenly: "It's not impossible to force the promotion, don't we singers just remember it?"

    "Not bad." The famous opera actors present echoed.

    Regardless of the difference between the north and the south, all operas in the country, the chanting is the authentic official language.

    Zhao Han asked with a smile: "If it is forced to be promoted, should the correct pronunciation be based on the elegant dialect of the Central Plains, or the old dialect of Jiangzuo?"

    "It doesn't matter." Everyone laughed.

    There are two authoritative works in the Ming Dynasty, one is called "Hongwu Zhengyun" and the other is called "Jiaotai Yun".

    Due to different authors, "Hongwu Zhengyun" is biased towards Jianghuai dialect, and "Jiaotai Rhyme" is biased towards the original Chinese dialect.

    Li Banghua suddenly said: "Let's take "Hongwu Zhengyun" as the standard. In the early Ming Dynasty, the fields were farmed in various places, and Jianghuai dialect was used in a wider area."

    "Really want to do this?" Qian Qianyi was horrified.

    Zhao Han said: "I am not trying to abolish Yayan, but to use Jianghuai dialect as the criterion, so that people everywhere can communicate in language."

    Qian Qianyi said: "The general town will implement three-year education. From now on, there will be scholars everywhere. Everyone can understand the pronunciation of reading, and naturally everyone can communicate without hindrance. Why force the promotion of Jianghuai dialect?"

    Zhao Han explained: "I plan to compile a dictionary and remake the method of Qieyin (Pinyin). In this way, children in elementary school can cut the pronunciation by themselves in two or three months, and learn new words by flipping through the dictionary."

    "How can there be such an easy method in the world?" Qian Qianyi couldn't imagine it at all.

    Zhao Han said with a smile: "How will you know if you don't try it? First determine the model tone, how many tones should it be? Do you want to keep the incoming tone?"

    This question stunned everyone.

    Qian Qianyi bit the bullet and said: "Seven tones, as for the entrance tones, you should keep it."

    Zhao Han teased, "Did Emperor Chongzhen speak with a voice?"

    "No." Li Banghua and Qian Qianyi shook their heads at the same time.

    &nbsIt's all the same principle.

    And this principle comes from the traditional Yayan, which is the set of reading pronunciation rules that are compatible with various dialects.

    Zhao Han pointed to the blackboard: "These are initials, and these are finals."

    Those who have learned the punctuation method of Yayan can understand it as soon as they hear it. Qian Qianyi and Liu Rushi immediately understand what those letters are for.

    Even Zhao Han didn't need to explain the meaning of the two words initials and finals.

    Sound, rhyme, and mother are themselves phonological terms.

    Seeing their reactions, Zhao Han was immediately happier. It was easy for the scholars to accept, all they had to do was forcefully memorize the pronunciation of the letters.

    "You read it yourself." Zhao Han said.

    Next to each Latin letter, there are Chinese phonetic notation, and Zhao Han also wrote several examples of the combination of sounds and vowels.

    The two looked at the Chinese phonetic notation for a while, and Zhao Han wrote the four tones of modern Chinese: "Here are the tones. I created four by myself, and you created the remaining three."

    Qian Qianyi randomly selected a few Chinese characters, tried to use the pinyin method to cut the sound, and suddenly sighed: "Although it is superficial, it is really easy for Mongolian children to learn. But it has deviated from the method of correct rhyme. Once this correct pronunciation is popularized, in time, local dialects from all over the world will become more and more popular.  will perish."

    Zhao Han said: "Language, like characters, has been changing since ancient times, and the direction of change is from complex to simple. I not only want to simplify the phonetic rhythm, but also simplify Chinese characters. If there are multiple ways of writing, choose the simplest and most reasonable one.  .¡±

    Qian Qianyi said with emotion: "The ambition of the general town can only be glimpsed today."

    Zhao Han does not engage in forced simplification, but just chooses simple characters as the standard characters.

    For example, "wu" and "wu" have been used for hundreds of years, and their meaning and usage are exactly the same. Why not use "wu" as a standard glyph?

    Liu Rushi looked at Zhao Han's leaving voice, and said to himself: "A really great man!"

    Qian Qianyi pretended not to hear it, he didn't dare to provoke this strange woman again, and he was even more afraid of offending that great man just now.
