苍颉造字神异辨

The Disputation on the Myths of Cangjie’s Inventing Wordage

苍颉的名号来源于他用木炭、草汁写字和仰头思考 ;苍颉四目表明当时已经出现并使用眼镜 ;天雨粟、鬼夜哭是龙卷风造成的自然灾象 ;苍颉整理、改造并创造我国远古时代的文字 。

s:The cognomen of Cangjie arose from the behavior of writing with charcoal and juice of herbage and the image of one thinking with his face up. Cangjie has four eyes, which indicate that by his time there had already been eyeglasses in use. The Grain Rain and the Ghost's Evening Cry are natural disasters caused by hurricane. Cangjie was enlightened by the River Picture, i.e., the pattern of a tortoise's tegmen, who collected, reshaped and finally created the ancient Cloud-shape Words in our country.
