from the Perspective of Chinese history——Taking the Diffi cult Characters of Cantonese#br#
Opera in the Qing Dynasty as an Example#br#
Abstract: This paper attempts to combine the knowledge of Chinese history and dialectology, link the
common interpretation principles with the individual characteristics of Cantonese, and examine the
diffi cult characters in Cantonese opera in the Qing Dynasty from the perspective of “shape, sound and
meaning”. When the reader is faced with an unfamiliar dialectal word, he can try the following methods
to interpret it: when using glyphs, consider synchronic glyph materials and transforming parts; when
using dialects, make a connection to the bottom layer of phonetics and foreign languages, and get rid of
the problems of phony borrowing and conjugation; when using the meaning of words, pay attention to
their distinction.
