Couplets, also known as couplets or antithetical couplets, are antithetical couplets written on paper, cloth or carved on bamboo, wood, or pillars. The language is simple and profound, with neat contrasts and harmonious levels. Each word is one word. Sound is a unique art form of the Chinese language. According to legend, the couplet originated from Meng Chang, the lord of Shu after the Five Dynasties. It is a cultural treasure of the Chinese nation.

As the name suggests, couplets must be in "pairs", that is, they are composed of an upper couplet and a lower couplet. The number of words in the upper and lower couplets must be equal, and the content must be consistent, that is, the upper and lower couplets must be "connected" together. Two unrelated sentences cannot be randomly combined to form a couplet. Couplets are generally written vertically, with the last character of the first couplet (oblique tone) affixed to the right (upper hand), and the last character (flat tone) of the second couplet affixed to the left (lower hand). Although the antithesis of couplets has similarities with poetry, it is more demanding than poetry. There are broad and narrow couplets. A wide pair only requires that the contents of the upper and lower couplets are connected to form a couplet, while a narrow pair must be written strictly according to the standards of "Li Weng Duiyun". However, in practical couplets, wide pairs are more often used, while narrow pairs are often used because the requirements for antithesis are too strict, which restricts people's thinking and is suspected of being harmful to the text, so it is rarely used. The rules of level and obliqueness of couplets are basically the same as those of poetry. Yi Yin applies the basic rule of poetry that one, three, five, and two, forty and six are clear. How to determine the upper and lower lines of a couplet? In addition to distinguishing from the content of the couplet, it is more important to judge from the equivocal tone at the end of the couplet. The couplets strictly stipulate that the last word of the first couplet should be in oblique tone, and the last word of the second couplet should be in flat tone. Later generations called this rule the ups and downs. It must be noted that the "four tones" of ancient Chinese and modern Chinese are somewhat different. Since the promotion of Hanyu Pinyin and the adoption of Beijing pronunciation as the national common language, the same Chinese characters have changed. For example, according to the phonological standard of "Peiwen Yunfu", the four tones are Ping, Shang, Qu and Ru. Ping tone is classified as "ping", and Shang, Lai and Ru are all summarized into "廄". According to the Beijing intonation, it is divided into Yinping, Yangping, Shangsheng and Qusheng. As a result, there are more characters for Pingsheng and there is no "ru" sound. Some of the characters for Qushengsheng are classified into Pingsheng. This is worthwhile for comrades who are learning to compose couplets. Attention. Since ancient times, many language scholars have made a relatively detailed explanation of the four tones of ancient Chinese. Ru Shivacu made the following analysis in his book "Jade Key Song Jue": 1. Ping - Ping Sing and Ping Dao, don't be too low. When read, the pronunciation is gentle, the final sound is long, and there is a lingering rhyme. 2. Go up - shout loudly and violently. The pronunciation is loud, the sound is short, and there is no ending. 3. Go - go and express my sorrow for the long journey. The pronunciation of the falling tone is round and round, and the ending sound is short and high-pitched. 4. Enter - the entry sound is short and urgent. The pronunciation of the entering tone is simple and urgent, and the closing tone is short, low, and has no ending. The four tones of Chinese are marked with Beijing intonation, which are Yinping, Yangping, rising tone and falling tone. They all evolved from the four tones of ancient Chinese. When people judge the level and obliqueness of couplets, they also habitually use the four tones of ancient Chinese as the tone. standard. Nowadays, apart from correcting pronunciation, the four tones of modern Chinese are rarely used to compose dialogues, write poems, and fill in lyrics. But with the promotion of Mandarin and the passage of time, the four tones of modern Chinese have finally been accepted by people. Some Chinese characters have always been used interchangeably between plain and oblique sounds. They can be used in flat or oblique sounds, such as Kan, Jiao, Wei, Si, Pang... A few examples are as follows: (1) "Kan" is in flat tone: the sun shines on the incense burner and produces purple smoke. , you can see the waterfall hanging in Qianchuan from a distance; the water flows down three thousand feet, it seems that the Milky Way falls from the sky. (2) "Look" is made in a flat tone: the plums drip with sourness and splash on the teeth, the bananas are green and covered with window screens; the day is long and I fall asleep with no thoughts, and I watch the children catching willow flowers. (3) "Jiao" is used in a flat tone: the cherries, apricots, peach and durians are blooming one after another, so Jiao is planted one by one by the window; the bamboo shadows are leaning against the willows, and the clear shade enters the house. (4) "Teach" is made in a flat tone: Chalk life is also happy, and good people are educated according to their aptitude; the garden is full of peaches and plums, full of vitality, and the spring breeze turns into rain in succession. (5) "Wei" is used as a flat tone: One is to move to Changsha, looking west to Chang'an but not seeing home; the jade flute is played in the Yellow Crane Tower, and the plum blossoms fall in May in Jiangcheng. (6) "Wei" is pronounced in a flat tone: It was originally for the king of Han to do great things, but he did not take himself into consideration. I had known that the rabbit would end up cooking the dog, but I regretted it and ended up fishing in Huaiyin. In addition to requiring rhyme and antithesis, couplets also have certain rules for phrases and structure. For example: (single group, four-character structure) Be content and happy; be able to endure and be at peace. (Complex group, seven-character structure) The peach-leaf warbler cries wetness on the spring river; the plum blossoms and butterflies dream of coldness when it rains at night. (Compound group, eight-character structure) The sea accepts hundreds of rivers, and tolerance is great; the wall stands thousands of feet, and there is no desire to be strong.
(Compound group, nine-character structure) Retell the past and present; recount the joys and sorrows from the beginning. (Compound group, twelve-character structure) The heaven and earth are benevolent, and the innocent and gray-headed people feel the same sympathy; the past and the present are sacred, and the nine states and all nations are honored. (Complex group, thirteen-character structure) The phrases and structures of the upper and lower lines of the couplets should be consistent and unified. The upper couplet has a verb-object structure, and the second couplet must also have a verb-object structure, such as "shake red; clean green." The first line is a positive phrase, and the second line must also be a positive phrase, such as "Tongxinknot" and "Bingdihua", which have the same phrase structure. When planning the layout of couplet phrases, it is important to note that the phrase structure of the upper and lower couplets must be the same. This is also an important rule that couplet authors must follow. Red paper method: Recipe: 50 grams of white paper, 808 red powder, polyethylene glue, edible alkali (50 grams of paper refers to grams per square meter) Ingredients: 1. Take 1 catty of 808 red powder and add about 1 thermos bottle of boiling water. After stirring, grind with electric grinder or stone grinder. To increase fineness and brightness, it is best to grind 3 times. 2. Take about 2 tea bowls of polyethylene glue, add about 8 tea bowls of water and boil it. 3. Pour the boiled polyethylene glue into the ground slurry, and finally add a little edible alkali and stir. After stirring evenly, it will be the pigment for year-round red paper. Brush paper: Lay the white paper flat on the brush table, dip it in paint with a special brush, and brush it from left to right in the middle of the paper. Then brush from top to bottom until the red powder and 107 glue are evenly mixed. Stir the red powder and 107 glue evenly. After dissolving for 10 minutes, add all the boiling water and stir thoroughly. Because the red pink is not pink enough, the solution should be poured into the small steel pipe at this time. Grind 4-5 times to get a year-round red and vermilion pulp
The formal name of the couplet is called couplets, commonly known as pairs. It is a unique form of Chinese language, literature and art in our country, and it provides society with Popular with people from all walks of life. Couplet rhythm, in summary, consists of six major elements, also called "six phases", which are summarized as follows: First, the number of words should be equal. The number of words in the first couplet is equal to the number of words in the second couplet. In the long couplet, the number of words in each clause of the upper and lower couplets is equal. There is a special case where the number of words in the upper and lower couplets is intentionally different. For example, during the Republic of China, someone satirized Yuan Shikai in a couplet: "Yuan Shikai is eternal; long live the Chinese people." The three words "Yuan Shikai" in the upper couplet and the four words "Chinese people" in the second couplet are "I'm sorry" means that Yuan Shikai was sorry for the Chinese people.
Duplicate words or repeated words are allowed in couplets. Duplicated words and repeated words are common rhetorical techniques in couplets. However, when overlapping, pay attention to the consistency of the upper and lower couplets. For example, Gu Xiancheng in the Ming Dynasty wrote a couplet of Wuxi Donglin Academy: the sound of wind and rain and the sound of reading can be heard; family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs, everything is concerned about. However, "heavy words in different positions" and "heavy words in the same position" should be avoided as much as possible in the couplets. The so-called repeated characters in different positions means that the same character appears in different positions in the upper and lower lines. The so-called word repetition in the same position means that the same word is used in the same position above and below. However, some function words with the same position and same position are allowed, such as Hangzhou West Lake Ge Ling couplet: The song of peach blossoms and flowing water; among the green grass and green grass. The word "Zhi" in the upper and lower couplets is repeated in the same position, but because it is a fictitious character, it is okay. However, there is a special "heterotopic and mutual emphasis" format that is allowed (called "replacement format"), such as Lin Sen's couplet for Mr. Sun Yat-sen: One person lasts through the ages; Second, the parts of speech are equivalent. In modern Chinese, there are two major categories of speech, namely content words and function words. The former includes six categories: nouns (including locative words), verbs, adjectives (including color words), numerals, quantifiers, and pronouns. The latter includes six categories: adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, particles, interjections, and onomatopoeia. Equivalent parts of speech means that words or phrases in the same position in the upper and lower conjunctions should have the same or similar parts of speech. The first is the rule of "real versus real, virtual versus virtual", which is the most basic rule with the broadest meaning. Just follow this in some cases. Secondly, there are corresponding rules for parts of speech, that is, the above 12 types of words correspond to each other. This rule should be followed in most cases. The third is the meaning-category correspondence rule. Meaning-category correspondence refers to putting the same type of things expressed in Chinese characters together and contrasting them. The ancients noticed this rhetorical method very early. In particular, the noun part is divided into many subcategories, such as: astronomy (sun, moon, wind, rain, etc.), seasons (years, festivals, mornings and evenings, etc.), geography (mountains, winds, rivers, etc.), official rooms (buildings, doors, etc.), vegetation (plants, trees, peaches, plums, etc.) ), birds (chickens, phoenixes, cranes, etc.) and so on. Finally, there is the adjacent category correspondence rule, that is, words in adjacent categories can communicate with each other. Such as astronomy versus seasons, astronomy versus geography, geography versus palaces, etc. The third is structural compatibility. The so-called structural compatibility means that the grammatical structure (or the structure of its phrases and sentence patterns) of the upper and lower couplets should be as similar as possible, that is, the subject-predicate structure versus the subject-predicate structure, the verb-object structure versus the verb-object structure, and the partial structure. Positive structure versus partial structure, parallel structure versus parallel structure, and so on. For example, Li Bai wrote a couplet on a tower in Yueyang, Hunan: The water and sky are of the same color; the wind and moon are boundless. Both the upper and lower couplets of this couplet have a subject-predicate structure. Among them, "water and sky" and "wind and moon" are both parallel structures, and "one color" and "boundless" are both positive structures. However, in the case of equivalent parts of speech, the requirements for some more similar or special sentence structures can be relaxed appropriately. Fourth, the rhythm is consistent, that is, the pauses in the upper and lower lines must be consistent. For example: Don’t let the good days of Spring and Autumn pass by; the most difficult thing is the wind and rain when old friends come. This is a seven-character short couplet, and the rhythm of the upper and lower couplets is exactly the same, both "two-two-three".
For longer couplets, the rhythm must also be corresponding. The fifth is the harmony between Ping and Ze. What is Ping and Ze? The classification of Mandarin's tone and tones, in short, is that Yin Ping and Yang Ping are Ping, and the rising and falling tones are Ting. Among the four ancient tones, the flat tone is flat, and the rising, coming, and entering tones are flat. The harmony between levels and obliques includes two aspects: (1) The upper and lower lines are opposite to oblique and oblique. Generally speaking, it is not required that the words should be opposite, but it should be noted that: the last characters (joints) of the upper and lower couplets should be opposite, and the upper and lower lines should be flat and the upper and lower lines should be flat; the words at the end of the phrase or the rhythm point should be the opposite; the upper and lower characters in the long couplet should be opposite. The last word (sentence foot) of each clause in the couplet should be the opposite of oblique and oblique. (2) The upper and lower couplets alternate between oblique and oblique sentences. Contemporary Lianjia Yu Dequan and others summarized a set of rules of "horse hoof rhyme". To put it simply, it means "level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level, level," and keep going, just like the rhythm of a horse's hooves. Sixth, the content is related. What is a couplet? It means both "right" and "connected". The above-mentioned words with the same number of words, the same parts of speech, the same structure, the corresponding rhythm and the harmony of oblique and oblique are all "right", but there is still one "link" missing. "Connection" means that the content must be relevant. The content between the upper and lower couplets of a couplet should be related. If the upper and lower couplets each write about an unrelated thing, and the two cannot reflect, connect, and echo, then it cannot be regarded as a qualified couplet, or even a couplet.

Li Bai Yang Guozhong, a favored minister of the powerful Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, was jealous of Li Bai's talent. He was very dissatisfied and always wanted to ridicule him. One day, Yang Guozhong came up with a way to ask Li Bai to play the three-step sentence. As soon as Li Bai entered the door, Yang Guozhong looked at Li Bai and said sarcastically: Two apes were cutting wood in the mountain, and asked the monkeys how to saw each other? "Saw" is a homologue of "sentence", and "monkey" alludes to Li Bai. After hearing this, Li Bai smiled slightly and said, "My lord, please start. If you can't keep up within three steps, I will lose." Yang Guozhong wanted to finish the three steps quickly, but as soon as he took one step, Li Bai pointed at Yang Guozhong's feet and shouted: "Pi!" The horse hides in the mud and watches how the beast moves its hooves! "Hoof" is a homologue of "title", which perfectly matches the first couplet. Yang Guozhong wanted to take advantage, but he was humiliated by Li Bai instead. As soon as he raised his feet, he was ridiculed as "a beast with hoofs", which made him feel awkward even if he didn't walk. He was very embarrassed. Lü Mengzheng screamed when there was injustice. Lü Mengzheng, the Prime Minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, was from Luoyang, Henan. It is said that when he was young, he was poor and very dissatisfied with the social phenomenon of inequality between rich and poor. The Spring Festival was here, and there was nothing in his house. He was so angry that he wrote a strange couplet. The first line is: two, three, four, five; the second line is: six, seven, eighty-nine. The horizontal comment is: North and South. After the strange couplet was posted, all the poor friends came to watch it. They were confused at first, but when they realized it, they couldn't help but applaud. It turns out that the meaning of this couplet is: lack of clothes (1), lack of food (10), and no "things". In 1924, when I was in Jiazi, it was a rare encounter in 60 years. A scholar from the Naxi ethnic group in Lijiang, Yunnan, and Wenhua specially composed an upper couplet and posted it at the street entrance to sign up for the pair. Repay each other with small gifts. This couplet is a "flower" pair: Lanterns are hung in the sky of apricot flowers, peach blossoms are red, plum blossoms are white, flowers are worn on the head, flowers are grown on the steps, flowers are added, the fragrance of flowers penetrates the horse country; and the scholar thought this was difficult Yes, no one can match it unless it takes ten days and a half. Unexpectedly, someone came to the door the next day. It turned out that the scholar Wang Shuhe had made a string of "A" in the second couplet overnight: Looking through the armor's eyes, the lin armor is auspicious, the tortoise shell is auspicious, and the dragon appears in the armor. , the turtles display their armor, and the armor is added to the armor, and the armor is shining brightly for the past six years. He must give gifts to scholars, but Wang Juren refused, and it became a good story for a while.
