A Study On The Language Of Daybooks In Bamboo And Silk Manuscripts

Daybook is a kind of arithmetical literature,which takes the choice of fate and time as the main body and contains many practical and easy-to-use prescriptions.The research results of daybooks are rich in general,but most of the former scholars are individual studies on a certain batch of these materials;however,they lack systematic and comparative studies.The research from the perspective of language and characters is in urgent.This paper takes the special terms in the unearthed materials of bamboo and silk as the research object,and makes a systematic arrangement and special research on them.Chapter I,I mainly research on the characters of daybooks in Bamboo and Silk Manuscripts。In this chapter,I makes an exhaustive study of the characters,such as the fake,the variant,the ancient and the modern,the erroneous characters,by combining the macro generalization and the micro description.Chapter II,I mainly research on the language of the daybooks(I)This chapter is a comprehensive study on the language the daybooks.First of all,the language is divided into six categories: Numeracy principle language,shensha language,time and day name language,ghost and God language,event language and result language.From the two aspects of syllable and grammar,this paper studies the structure of the language,which is mainly composed of two syllable words,in line with the trend of polysyllabic segmentation of Chinese vocabulary.The most prominent feature of daybooks language is that it takes "day" as the core morpheme,and more than 200 words are composed of "day".The core terms of daybooks are quite stable.Secondly,the words of daybooks are mainly produced by using word-building materials to create new words,extending and borrowing,borrowing terms from other fields.In terms of generalization,we believe that daybooks words and expressions are mainly generalized into national terms and other professional terms.We have extracted 46 core morphemes from the daybook represented by "day,month,day,earth,Qi,door,God,ghost,auspicious and taboo".These core morphemes are widely distributed,frequently used and productive in daybooks.The core morphemes of the language are monosyllabic morphemes,most of which come from the basic concepts and principles of numeracy.Chapter III,I mainly research on the language of the daybooks(II)This chapter makes a special study on the expressions of events and results in daybooks.First of all,we have divided the language into 15 categories,including sacrificial language,expedition language,work language,local function language,production language,marriage language,clothing and food language,death language,theft language,trade language,return language,communication language,agriculture,forestry,fishery and animal husbandry language,year language and other terms.There are not only stability,but also development and change in thedaybooks language.Secondly,daybooks resultant language can be divided into auspicious language and ominous language.We study auspicious semantic field and ominous semantic field from the perspective of semantic aggregation.The synonyms,antonyms and affirmative and negative forms in the group of daybooks result words are the rich expressions of result words,which make the expressions of choice results more diverse and changeable.In addition,a comparison is also made with the result language of the handed down numeracy literature.Chapter IV,I mainly introduce the study of the historical value of daybooks vocabulary.Under the background of numeracy language,some new words and new meanings are produced in day books.These new words and new meanings are rarely seen or not seen in other documents.Their emergence enriches the Chinese vocabulary system.This chapter explains the research value of language in historical lexicology from the following aspects: adding new words,adding meanings,explaining new words,using cases of complementing words and "seeing the book in advance".Chapter V,I selected and explanted some difficult words in daybooks.In this chapter,I sums up the opinions of the predecessors and obtains our opinions on several different words,such as "nine Taboos" of shensha,"room" in "death chapter" of daybooks,the name of ghosts and gods "building prison" and "outside".In fact,the research and identification of controversial words run through the whole thesis,such as "Jue Shi","wushanggang","xingchenji","Xueming" and other words,"Mufengren ","dashen","Jigui" and other ghost words,"xingzuo","baiyizhiju" and other words,"Jing" and other result words,we all discriminate and put forward our views.Appendix I,which is a summary of daybooks language.It is classified into daybooks language and gives explanations.In Appendix II,the author arranges the rhymes in day books,analyzes the rules of using rhymes and explains the purpose of using rhymes.The rhymes in day books are mainly Yangbu rhymes.The innovation of this paper lies in:For the first time,I comprehensively collate the special use of words in day books.This paper constructs a vocabulary system of language,and makes a classification and statistics of them.I also analyze the generation and evolution of the daybooks language,and reveals the interaction between daybook language,normal language and other social dialects.I also extract the core morphemes,analyze the motivation and ability of the combination of the core morphemes of language,and explain the internal characteristics and relations of the vocabulary system of daybooks.With reference to the handed down and unearthed documents of numerology,this paper makes a special study on the expressions of events and results in daybooks.To explain the value of daybooks language in historical lexicology and lexicography.Daybooks involve many kinds of skills,including all kinds of terms,so limited to time and knowledge,this paper inevitably has shortcomings.
