“壬”、“■”字义考辨及字形规范——兼谈“任”与“仼”、“呈”与“■”的字形字义关系

Analysis on the Meaning and Standard Glyph of “壬” 、“■”——Talk about Relations of “任” and “仼”、“呈” and “■ ”

从"壬、■"字形的历史演变过程和当前的应用层面提出字形规范统一的设想,以期为当前的汉字字形规范提供参考。从字源看,"壬"应写为"■",但历代字书中写为"壬",是为与"王"加大区别度;"壬、■"是形音义完全不同的两个字,但这两个字形很早就混同,字形本身已不具备区别字义的作用;在海峡两岸现行汉字的实际运用中,都出现"壬、■"混同的现象。从文字部件简化优化的角度出发,建议将"壬"确立为标准字形,将字源含有"■"的字分化为两部分,一部分与"壬"同形,一部分与"王"同形。同时,也梳理了"任"与"仼"、"呈"与"■"的字形字义关系。

According to glyph historical evolution and current application, the idea of unity for the current Chinese characters is put forward. According to character origin,＂壬＂ should be written as ＂＂, but it is written as ＂＂ in past dynasties dictionary in order to distinguish it from ＂ ＂; and are two completely different characters in glyph, pronunciation and meaning. But they have been mixed together for a long time and their meaning can not be judged by these two glyphs themselves. Today people usually combine ＂~,＂ in the living Chinese characters on both sides of the Taiwan straits. We suggest acknowledging that＂ ＂is the standard glyph,and dividing characters including ＂＂ into two parts. One part same time, the glyph and meaning of ＂ is same with ＂ ＂ and the other part is same as ＂＂. At the ＇and＂ ＂ and ＂＂ are analyzed.
