理据对字形发展演变的影响

The Influence of Rationale on the Development and Evolution of the Glyph of Chinese Characters

汉字的创制有很强的理据性,这些理据不仅或多或少地被传承了下来,而且影响着汉字的发展演变。在文字孳乳中,理据对假借字演变、通假字、词汇用字等均存在着影响;在字形演变中,理据导致了字形繁化,理据累增也会引起字形变化。理据对汉字系统的影响主要表现在增加理据弥补形变缺失、对异体字字用分工的影响及制约字形的发展变化三个方面。理据在文字孳乳、字形演变中均发挥着深刻的影响,很大程度上维护了汉字系统的严密性。

There is a strong rationale for the creation of Chinese characters. These rationales have been inherited more or less, and have influenced the development of Chinese characters. In the breeding of Chinese characters, rationale has an impact on the evolution of pseudo-loanwords, the deformation of pseudo-words and the usage of words. In the evolution of glyph, rationale leads to the multiplication of glyph, and the accumulation of rationales also causes the change of glyph. The influence of rationale on Chinese character system is mainly manifested in such three aspects: increasing motivation to make up for the lack of deformation, impacting on the division of labor of variant characters and restricting the development and change of fonts.Rationale plays a profound influence on the Chinese character derivation and glyph evolution, which largely maintains the rigor of the Chinese character system.
