What does the word "xi" mean:
Origin of the word:
"Sunset "Infinitely good, but it's almost dusk." The word "xi" in "sunset" is a pictographic character. The shape of the Oracle ① is like a half-moon shape! It can be seen that "Xi" and "月" are probably the same word in bronze inscriptions. Bronze Inscription ② has lost a small vertical line in the middle, but it is still half a "moon" shape; the small vertical line in the middle may represent "light", with light being "moon", and without light being "evening". The Xiaozhuan ③ is the same as the bronze inscription, except that the lower part is not sealed. The shape of regular script ④ is similar to the moon, but there is a missing painting in the middle, which is "moon" and incomplete, lightless and colorless, so "xi" means evening.
The original meaning of the word "xi" is "sunset", such as "The Book of Songs? Wang Feng? Gentleman in Service": "The sun has set, and the cattle and sheep have come down." It means that the sun has set, and the cattle and sheep are coming. go home. From sunset and evening, it is extended to "night", such as "The Book of the Later Han? The Fifth Lun Zhuan": "I didn't sleep at night." That is, I didn't sleep all night. "Xi" is the end of the day, so the last sentence of a month is also called "Moon Eve", and the last quarter of the year is "Nian Zhi Eve". Bai Juyi's "Qin Zhong Yin? Not to be an official": "The morning dew is greedy for fame and fortune, and the setting sun worries about the descendants." If the "morning dew" and "setting sun" here are interpreted as "morning dew" and "evening sun", it would be wrong. The "morning dew" and "sunset" represent "youth" and "old age". The meaning of the original poem is: chasing fame and fortune in youth, and worrying about the future of children and grandchildren in old age.
The character "Xi" is a radical character. In Chinese characters, most of the characters composed of the character "xi" are related to "moon" or "night", such as "duo", "su", "night" and other characters.
