《诗经》词义考辨二则

Textual Research and Lexical Meaning Analysis of Two Words in The Book of Songs

"翱翔",古籍中多数指人的遨游,并非指今之空中飞翔之意。"昭假",义为昭格,假与格古籍中并非全为"至"义,多数用为"告"义。古籍中常见的"昭假"应是"昭告"的意思。此二词之原义,后人多不明,以致误解。

＂翱翔＂ in many classics refers to man＇ s journey, not bird＇ s flight. The meaning of ＂昭假＂ is ＂昭格＂. In ancient works, not all ＂假＂ and ＂格＂ mean ＂至＂. In most of cases, they mean ＂告＂, so ＂昭假＂ means ＂昭告＂. Later readers who do not know these may arrive at misunderstandings.
