汉字－－研究中国史前社会的活化石

汉字特有的象真写实性决定了汉字的构造和读音中蕴藏了大量的历史信息,"依类象形"、"相生为字"的造字传说并非空穴来风.古人确是先造出有形的静态实物字名,然后再依类造出相应的动态叙事式字名.因此,汉字中同类静态实物字名与另一类相对应的动态叙事式字名之间存在着相生性叙事式逻辑关系,从中可解读出史前人类的生存状态.

Chinese characters--the living fossils for studying the pre-historic Chinese society

The pictographic characteristic of Chinese characters decides that they can revcal a lot of historic information from their constructions and pronunciations.Such legends in creating Chinese characters as "creating pictographic forms according to the characteristies of things of the same group" and "creating characters based on the pictographic forms" are trustworth .The ancient people actually first did create the naming characters with pictographic forms for things in static state.Then they created the corresponding narrative naming characters in dynamic state according to the group characteristics of the things. Therefor,these two forms of characters have an inter related narrative logical relationship,from whichpeople can learn about the survival conditions of the prehistoric people.
