Chinese writing began thousands of years ago.According to an ancient story,a man named Cang Jie invented Chinese writing.One winter day while he was hunting,he saw the footprints of animals in the snow and noticed that the appearance of each one was different.Then he had the idea that he could use different shapes to represent different objects.The first Chinese characters were drawings of physical objects.Some characters have been simplified (簡(jiǎn)化) and others have been made more difficult over time.
However,as a whole,the characters have developed from drawings into standard forms.The character for a mountain was at first three mountaintops together.This became one mountaintop and three lines,and over time turned into the character used nowadays.
Sometimes to express ideas,some characters were made by combining two or more characters together.For example, "rest" was made up of the characters for a man and a tree.The character "prisoner" was formed with a "man" inside a square.Other characters were developed for directions and numbers.It is easy to distinguish (區(qū)別) their meanings by looking at them,for example,the characters for "up" and "down",which are opposites of each other.
Though these kinds of characters indicate meanings,one of their shortcomings is that they do not show how they should be pronounced. Therefore,a method was developed to have one part of a character represent the meaning and the other suggest the pronunciation.Many Chinese characters used today were made this way.
In the 1950s the Chinese government introduced simplified Chinese characters in the hope to make learning to read and write more understandable to the general population,which would increase literacy (讀寫(xiě)能力) across the country.And now they have widespread use in China's mainland.
