《广雅疏证》对右文说的继承与发展

右文说存在着圃于字形和容易以偏概全两大缺陷.王念孙在继承前人成果的基础上,利用形声宇声符表音的特点,发挥自己的古音学特长,将传统的右文说改造成利用谐声偏旁系联同源词的利器.在《广雅疏证》中,只要音近义通,不只声符相同的形声宇可以系联在一起,就是声符不同但读音相同相近的形声字也可以系联到一块,运用右文说系源取得了远超前人的成就.

In Guangyashuzheng, as long as the sounds were similar and the meanings were related, not only the pictophonetic character of the same phonetic part but also the pictophonetic character of the different phonetic part could be banded into one phrase. So it utilized Right - part Theory to contract the words of the same etymological origin to achieve tremendously.
