Chinese Characters:
Chinese characters, also known as Chinese language or Chinese script, are a type of logographic writing system used for written Chinese. It is one of the oldest writing systems in the world, with a history of over six thousand years. Chinese characters have gradually evolved from pictograms to strokes, from depicting shapes and meaning to phonetic symbols. With a few exceptions, each Chinese character represents one syllable. It should be noted that countries such as Japan, the Korean Peninsula, and Vietnam have been deeply influenced by Chinese culture in history, and even their languages have borrowed Chinese characters.
Modern Chinese characters refer to the normalized form of Chinese characters, including both traditional and simplified characters. Modern Chinese characters have evolved from oracle bone script, bronze inscriptions, seal script, and lesser seal script to clerical script, cursive script, regular script, and running script. Chinese characters were invented and improved by the ancient ancestors of the Han ethnic group and serve as an indispensable link in different dialect areas of the Han people. The earliest surviving Chinese characters are the oracle bone script from the Shang Dynasty around 1300 BC and the later bronze inscriptions, which evolved into seal script during the Western Zhou Dynasty. This further developed into the small seal script and clerical script during the Qin Dynasty, and the regular script became popular during the Han and Wei dynasties. The regular script prevailed during the Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties and has been in use until today.
