The homophonic taboo of homophonic method

① In order to avoid the name of "Zheng" of Qin Shihuang, the word "Zheng" in "Zheng () Month" was changed to "Zheng Zheng". It's been more than two thousand years now, and I'm still studying level tone.

A young man in love can't eat lotus root when he goes to his girlfriend's house for dinner for the first time. Because sliced lotus root has many holes, using chopsticks to clip lotus root slices is picky, that is, finding fault with the woman. This marriage may break up. (Huang Jiuming)

The use of homophonic method is limited and should not be abused. Homophonic method is not allowed to be used in serious occasions, such as legal provisions and their explanations, official documents, etc. It is also used to draw conclusions for academic papers. Otherwise, it will be as nonsense as Zhao Benshan's sketch the rooster lay eggs. (Huang Jiuming)
