THE STUDY OF CHINESE CHARACTERS AND LANGUAGE 2019, 6 (2): 7-18.

Abstract

PDF (3252KB)

Zhuo ( 丵 ) was glossed as tussocky grass in Shuo Wen (《说文》) because the graph looks like grass growing up parallel to compete the height, but this explanation didn’t convince the majority of modern paleographers. There are many graphs of the Warring State containing the graph 丵 , and scholars deciphered them preferentially as the meaning of cha ( 察 ), qie ( 窃 ), qian ( 浅 ), zhi ( 质 ), etc., while the graph seems that it didn’t exist. This paper agrees that there are two pronunciations in Oracle Bone Inscriptions for 璞 interpreted by Tang Lan, pu ( 璞 ) and jian ( 翦 ),thus the constituent

of it also has two pronunciations, zao ( 凿 ) and chan ( 铲 ).While

being added dots would be 丵 , and

should be song ( 送 ) in Volume Two ,Tsinghua Bamboo Slips《清华·贰》, this indicates the 丵 of

could only be the phonetic constituent, which should be read as the combination of the initial of 士 and the final of 角 , so 菆丛 should be read as zouzhong ( 诹众 ), and 丵本 should be read as zhongben ( 重本 ) on Zuozhong Qiju ( 左冢漆梮 ).

Abstract

The graph

from the sentence

xing dong zhi he (

行东至河 ) in Oracle Bone Inscriptions has never been deciphered by previous scholars. I explained the graph

as zhen ( 朕 ), and the justification is as follows, the upside constituent

was zhou ( 舟 ), and the bottom part

was the abbreviated form of

.There were a few graphs of

（朕）written as

（朕）in Oracle Bone Inscriptions. The positions of graphic components were changing all along, and the structures could be juxtaposed structure or superposition method, thus the juxtaposed structure

（朕）could also be written as the superposition method

（朕）.The character style of this Oracle Bone Inscriptions entry belongs to the category of Shi-group in the early period of Wu Ding with the characteristics of larger font size and round-fluent strokes. This entry is precious as it is the earliest historical material which recorded the Yellow River, the content is Shang Wang said: I would go east to the Yellow River.
