“而直为此廪廪也”商兑

A Discussion about "而直为廪廪也"

王力先生主编的《古代汉语》教材中对“而直为此廪廪也”中“直”的注释值得商榷,通过考察和分析,教材把句中的“直”释为连词“却”有失允当,而将此处的“直”释为副词“竟、竟然”才更符合文意。

The annotation to the word of“直”in the sentence“而直为廪廪也”in the textbook of Classical Chinese edited by Wang Li is open to discussion.“直”is regarded as a conjunction and explained as“却”in the textbook. In fact the word“直”in the sentence is an adverb so we deem that it is reasonable to annotate it as“竟,竟然”.
