异形词及其规范

Chinese variant characters and their norm

异形词是读音相同,意义和用法也相同,但形体不同的一组词。从目前规范化的角度看它的范畴应限制在现代汉语词汇内。异形词的整理原则是:从俗,从简和表意表音明确。其中从俗是基础,其次是表意表音明确,词形简单应是参考项。对异形词的整理方法有二:合并法和分化法。在整理过程中应考虑到系列性特点。

Chinese variant characters are those with same pronounciation, same interpretation and same usage but without same form. They should be included in modern Chinese characters from the point of view of modern normative language. The regulation of the variant characters should be popularized and simplified with definite meaning and pronounciation. There are two ways to standardize the variant characters; amalgamation and seperation. A series of rules and regulations about them should be taken into consideration.
