National homonyms are the common language within the nation and one of the main symbols of an independent nation.
It's hard to say when the Chinese homophonic sounds came into being, but they existed in Xia, Shang, Zhou and Spring and Autumn Period at the latest. At that time, the national language * * * was called Yayan, which was mainly popular in the Yellow River Basin. The language of The Book of Songs is elegance, and there are also some examples in Zuo Zhuan and Mencius to explain dialects with elegance.
In the Han Dynasty, the national language of * * * was called lingua franca, also called lingua franca, lingua franca or generic name. Dialect compiled by Yang Xiong in the Western Han Dynasty is the first dialect book in China. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, people paid great attention to pronunciation when writing poems and articles, so many rhyming books were produced. The appearance of rhyme books and the prevalence of pronunciation have objectively promoted the national language. The national homophony in Yuan Dynasty was called the lingua franca of the world, and Zhou Deqing's Central Plains Rhyme recorded the national homophony at that time.
Homophones and dialects of the Han nationality all come from ancient Chinese and have the same origin. Chinese homophones are formed on the basis of a certain dialect, and our Chinese homophones are formed on the basis of the northern dialect. Putonghua was written into the Constitution of People's Republic of China (PRC) on 1982: "The State promotes Putonghua which is commonly used throughout the country". Since then, Mandarin has a clear legal status and has become the national common language.
2. Is Mandarin equal to Beijing dialect?
Some people think that Mandarin is Beijing dialect. For example, she can speak Mandarin or Beijing dialect, which means that Mandarin and Beijing dialect are the same thing. In fact, strictly speaking, "Putonghua" does not mean "Beijing dialect". Hou, a crosstalk master, vividly pointed out the difference between Putonghua and Beijing dialect in his crosstalk "Putonghua and Dialect".
Mandarin is the same language of Han nationality, while Beijing dialect is just one of many dialects. Putonghua was developed on the basis of Beijing dialect, and rose to a higher level after it became a national cognate. The definition of Putonghua is that Beijing dialect is the standard pronunciation, northern dialect is the basic dialect, and modern vernacular Chinese is the grammatical norm. It is generally believed that this definition is to standardize Putonghua from three aspects: pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. "Taking Beijing dialect as the standard sound" in Putonghua refers to taking Beijing phonology as the standard sound, that is, the initial consonant, vowel and tone system of Beijing dialect, but excluding the local sound of Beijing dialect; At the same time, the vocabulary of Putonghua does not include some dialects in Beijing dialect.
People in dialect areas must pay attention to learning Mandarin. They don't speak according to the pronunciation and words of Beijingers, especially old Beijingers. They should pay attention to distinguish which dialect is Beijing dialect. How to tell? The best way is to listen to ordinary radio and television, listen to audio and video tapes of Putonghua teaching, and learn standard Putonghua.
