The word "master" appeared earlier in history, originally meaning teacher. However, since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the word "master" has evolved into a general reference to the teachers of emperors, that is, teachers and teachers. The so-called "being a master is extremely expensive", and the usage of "master" has certain exclusiveness. After the Southern Song Dynasty, the word "master" began to return to the people, and civilians could also use it. The word "master" has been circulating since the Tang Dynasty. Its basic meaning is teacher, and it is also a respectful name for monks. The word "master" is much more emotional. In ancient times, masters often adopted apprentices themselves. Apprentices lived in the master's house, were educated by the master with money, and regarded them as family members. Even if not so close, in the traditional concept, teachers and fathers are equally important, so the word "father teacher" was used in the old society.
In today's society, it is often called "master = master", but there is still a difference between the two. Many fellow initiates still often refer to Master as Master. In fact, this is not appropriate. Master is our lifelong teacher, just like a loving father, not an equal with the world. "Master" and "Master" are homophones. I can't hear the difference when I speak, but it's different when I write. Master (usually kowtowing and formally accepting disciples with witnesses): a title for monks (monks, nuns, Taoist priests, traditional martial arts). Master (not kowtowing, not demanding): a person who teaches industrial skills, commerce, drama, calligraphy and painting, medical skills, etc. Used as a courtesy title for a skilled person. Such as old masters, chefs, carpenters, painters, etc. It is inappropriate to call a monk a "master", which also means degeneration and becoming a monk.
-References: The origin of "Master" in Modern Chinese Dictionary-According to historical records, "Master" was often used as a courtesy title for monks and Taoists in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. For example, the Collection of Zhanran Jushi, Letter to the Old Man in Song Wan, History of the Yuan Dynasty, Records of Criminal Law, and the First Collection of Luzhou by Yeluchucai all illustrate the universality of calling monks masters at that time. The origin of "master" The word "master" was used to refer to teachers as early as the Warring States period. There is a saying in the nineteenth year of Liang Zhuan: "It is not the master's sin to be a child, but the father's sin." It's the father's fault if an 8-year-old child doesn't go to school to study as a teacher. Saint Amethyst said, "If the son doesn't teach, the father will make a mistake.". After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the master changed from a general teacher who was engaged in teaching to a teacher who specifically referred to emperors (including emperors and kings). The meaning of master comes from the collective name of a surname and a teacher. Biography of Historical Records and Wu Wang: "Master Prince Wu is a Chu." It can be seen from the word "quan" that "teacher" and "fu" are juxtaposed. This is the meaning of the word "master" in nine places in Historical Records, 1 1 time. At this time, "master" is always associated with the words "Palace", "Oriental Palace", "Chu Jun", "Prince" and "Prince". From the Western Han Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, this was the most commonly used formulation by masters, and it was still preserved in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Obviously, because the status of "master" is too high and the reputation is too great, the so-called "being a master makes you extremely valuable" has certain exclusivity. From the Western Han Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, the meaning of "master" was almost monopolized by the specific reference of the emperor's teacher, with few exceptions. Since the Southern Song Dynasty, the meaning of "master" has gradually moved down, and teachers of ordinary people can also receive this name. For example, Zhu used master to refer to the master of the emperor and the master of the general. As for masters, they refer to people who teach skills in industries such as industry, commerce, drama, calligraphy and painting, and medical skills. That was after the middle and late Qing Dynasty. According to the habit of factory workers calling each other "masters", in the 1960s, any adult, especially the elderly, was called a master. The specific difference between a master and a master "Master" as an honorific title certainly contains feelings of respect, while "Master" generally addresses "teacher" as "father", which means that a master is a teacher for one day and a father for life. The feelings are obviously deeper. Influenced by the concept of attaching importance to teaching and respecting teachers, in the traditional concept, father and teacher have the same important significance, which is reflected in the dictionary of "father and teacher" which was widely used in the old days. "Father gives birth, teacher teaches" and "One day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father". On the road of a person's growth, the father has the grace of responsibility and the teacher has the friendship of education. The title "master" not only retains the original meaning of imparting knowledge or skills, but also injects more emotional color, showing the ancient people's feelings for teachers as much as for their fathers. "Besides, Taoist priests call themselves disciples, and they call themselves masters; When he calls himself a teacher, he calls himself a disciple. This is also a fact. " (Volume XIII of the King's Memorial) Both monks and laymen naturally call their beloved mage a "master".
I'm Gu Nan 'an. Master and master are two commonly used terms in our daily work and life. Their meanings are similar but obviously different, so we need to grasp them well:
1. Similarities The words "master" and "master" both have the meaning of a teacher, meaning someone who has learned professional knowledge and can impart knowledge or skills to others. Their meaning is equivalent to the word "teacher" in China's ancient poem "The Book of Teachers", so preaching and teaching can also dispel doubts.
Second, the difference Of course, there are still some subtle differences in the use of the words master and master, which need to be distinguished. There are mainly the following aspects:
1, the master, like a teacher and a father, shows respect to the master.
As the saying goes, "once a teacher, always a father". The relationship between master and apprentice is relatively closer. Their communication and getting along are not limited to preaching and teaching, and even because of the need to impart skills, Master should give students necessary guidance and help in life and the world. His worry and severity are even similar to that of a father raising a child, and his time and energy are far beyond the average. Even because of the mentoring relationship, he established a feeling of * * * death.
And "master" can be used to address two people who only know each other once, or people who don't know each other. It pays more attention to the social status of the called party.
2. There are differences in different fields.
Judging from the current actual situation, the word "master" is most commonly used in traditional technical fields such as martial arts, drama and performance, that is, these industries that are difficult to achieve obvious results for a while and take decades to master the tricks.
The word "master" extends to people from all walks of life. They are scholars, farmers and businessmen. Although these people may be insignificant or even relatively unfamiliar, people are still used to calling them "masters" to show respect and attention, such as drivers, security guards and so on.
Third, write it at the end, whether it is a master or a master, because they have their own expertise, they become the object of respect by others. But at the same time, the use of master or master should be treated differently according to the actual situation, so as to avoid embarrassment caused by misuse.
The difference between "master" and "master" is that the former is like a teacher and a father, who not only wants to teach you, but also loves you and is responsible for your actions. The latter is very simple. It just teaches you skills and is not responsible for any of your actions.
The title of "master" first began in the Tang Dynasty, which appeared later than "master" and was exactly the same as "master". Refers to a teacher who is engaged in teaching, such as "I am inferior and incompetent, but I secretly obey the master's instructions"; There are also teachers who specifically refer to the emperor, such as "take a basket into the phase and make salt plum III; He was called "the master" when he threw a fishing boat to climb the mountain. After the Tang Dynasty, "master" began to refer to people with special skills. The Story of China and North Korea written by Wei Chituo in the Southern Tang Dynasty records that an illusionist performed in Beijing during the reign of Tang Xiantong. After a failed performance, he apologized to the audience and said, "I'm here because I didn't get all the masters when I first arrived in Beijing." "If you can't do a little skill, let's have a look. One of you should be a master. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Fei Zhou's "Liang Manzhi" recorded that Wei Jiu, a robber in Gaoyou, was quick and good at walking, traveling hundreds of miles a day, with fierce momentum, eating and drinking during the day and being a thief at night. One day at breakfast, I was "told to worship the master" by a Taoist priest. Here, one is good at illusion, the other is quick-footed, and both of them have their own specialties.
In the Yuan Dynasty, "Master" was often used as a title of respect for monks and Taoists. "For example, in Ye's" Lu Chu Cai Ji ","laity ". A letter to Song Wan, an old man, said, "Disciples who have accepted the Dharma will nod from the source and then worship the Master's House". Basiba was a famous monk and was called a "master" by scholars at that time. There is also a saying in the Criminal Records of the Yuan Dynasty that "monks and Taoists steal their ancestors, teachers and disciples". As for the layman who followed the etiquette of the monk temple and called the monk "master", Lan Dingyuan, a beginner in the Qing Dynasty, once criticized: "Anyone who meets the former comrades should be called master. I don't think this is who, but the teacher's father. "("Lu Zhou Chu Ji "Volume 14) This shows the universality of calling monks" masters "at that time.
The word "master" appeared as early as the Warring States period and was used to address teachers from the beginning. After the Qin and Han dynasties, the master changed from a general teacher engaged in teaching to a teacher dedicated to serving the emperor. The meaning of "master" comes from the combination of a surname and a teacher.
From the Western Han Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, the meaning of "master" was almost the teacher of the emperor. This specific reference was exclusive, with few exceptions. Since the Southern Song Dynasty, the meaning of "master" has gradually moved down, and teachers of ordinary people can also receive this name.
As for the use of "master" to refer to people who teach skills in industries such as industry, commerce and drama, it was after the middle and late Qing Dynasty. According to the habit of factory workers calling each other "masters", in the 1960s, any adult, especially the elderly, was called "master". But it has continued to this day. As an honorific title, "master" certainly contains feelings of respect, while "master" generally addresses "teacher" as "father", which obviously has deeper feelings. Influenced by the concept of respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching, in the traditional concept, father and teacher have the same important significance, which is reflected in the dictionary of "father and teacher" which was widely used in the old days. "Father gives birth, teacher teaches." One day, he is a teacher and he will be a father all his life. "On the road of a person's growth, the father has the grace of responsibility and the teacher has the friendship of education." The title "master" not only retains the original meaning of imparting knowledge or skills, but also injects more emotional color, showing the ancient people's feelings for teachers as much as for their fathers.
The basic meaning of "master" and "master" is the same, that is, a person who imparts knowledge or skills. Compared with "master", "master" has a wider meaning, which includes all the meanings of "master". In many cases, these two words can be mixed.
Master: According to the notes in Modern Chinese Dictionary, one is to agree with the master. The second is the respect for monks and nuns.
Master: According to the annotation of Modern Chinese Dictionary, the first one is the name of the person who taught skills in industries such as industry, commerce and drama. The second is a title of respect for skilled people.
In fact, a master should generally refer to a teacher who is engaged in teaching, education and educating people. , is the honorific title for practitioners to teach students. In the basic sense, "master" and "master" are interlinked (homonym is synonymous).
However, the word "master" is more emotional, that is, it was said before: a teacher for one day, a father for life. (It's a pity that people in modern society, who will respect their teachers? Auspicious, it can be seen that those who hit the teacher on the road and bricks killed the teacher ...)
In ancient times, because most preachers engaged in teaching were men, it was essentially the same to compare "teacher" to "father". Therefore, someone who is not proficient in business or whose skills are not good enough is called "learning from a teacher"? [Laugh and cry] [Laugh and cry]
The ancients said: the feelings of mentoring include inherent respect, and more, deep feelings!
On the road of a person's growth, the father has the grace of responsibility and the teacher has the friendship of education.
There is a difference between "master" and "master".
It can be said that the meanings of "master" and "master" are basically the same. They all refer to teachers, but there are also differences.
1, these two words have different ages.
The word "master" was earlier than "master", which existed in Qin and Han Dynasties, and "master" appeared later, probably in the Tang Dynasty.
These two words point to different things.
The word "master" first refers to the emperor's teacher, often with a surname and a teacher. "As a host, you are extremely valued." The scope of "master" is very small. It was not until after the Southern Song Dynasty that the word "master" began to be used among the people. Mainly used as a title for agricultural, industrial and commercial workers.
The emotional colors of these two words are also different.
The word "master" is a bit emotional, just as a title for people in a certain industry. If you don't know how to address each other, just say "master". At present, this kind of "master" is still very common in society.
But "Master" has changed a lot, and its emotional expression is much stronger.
Since the emergence of "master" in the Tang Dynasty, its meaning refers to a teacher, and monks are often regarded as "masters". The word "master" is much more emotional. "Teacher, so preach and teach."
"Master" is not casually called. We often say "a teacher for a day, a father for life", which means "master". A "master" is a guide, a person who teaches you the skills and methods of being a man and making a living. We often say that "heaven and earth are teachers", which shows that the status of "master" is equivalent to that of parents.
"Master" is widely used. The field of "master" is education, and teachers can call it a master; Wushu, the teacher of Wushu practitioners; In the art world, crosstalk, sketches, songs and dances and other disciples call teachers masters; In addition, "masters" are also commonly used in the fields of architecture, machinery, engineering, transportation, commerce and so on.
I believe that many people can't tell the usage of the words "master" and "master", and it is even more sloppy when using them. Just like the silly girl whose brain was burnt out in Ji Gong. After all, she doesn't know whether she is "father" or "mother", so just call her!
China culture is extensive and profound. One word has many meanings, and different words express different meanings. If you don't pay attention, it is likely that disaster will come from your mouth and lead to various contradictions and disputes. Words such as "comrade" can't be misused any more.
In China's dictionary definition, there are obvious differences between "master" and "master".
It's just that I'm not familiar with the differences in daily life, and mashups have caused many misunderstandings.
Specifically, the simplest way to distinguish the usage of these two words is to look at the evolution of their appellations.
0 1 "Master" first refers to a teacher, and later it is a courtesy title for craftsmen with special skills. The word "master" has existed since the Warring States period, which means "master".
In ancient times, women called it "detention" and men called it "infiltration", which means that men and women in ancient times became children, over eight years old.
The meaning of the whole sentence is straightforward, that is, it is his father's fault that the 8-year-old child didn't learn from the teacher.
"Master" here means teacher.
After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the word "master" gradually evolved into a general term for teachers engaged in teaching work, especially for teachers of imperial nobles, that is, teachers with both civil and military skills. The text refers to the teacher of the emperor, followed by Shao Shi and Shaofu.
So at that time, the word "master" had a very important weight and was a title with high status and prestige.
According to research, from the Han Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, the word "master" was basically a special name for the emperor's teacher.
In other words, in ancient times, not any teacher could be called a "master". Only a high-ranking teacher who teaches in the palace can be called a master. This title is much higher than what we call "professor" now.
After the Southern Song Dynasty, the meaning of the title "master" gradually declined, and ordinary people's homes, that is, ordinary people's teachers, were all called "masters".
Later, in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the word "master" had a broader meaning, that is, it could also be used to refer to people who taught skills in drama, industry and commerce.
Later, in the new era, this word was widely used in factories and other places. Everyone calls leaders and class leaders masters, the younger ones are called "super products" and the older ones are called "old masters".
Nowadays, in the streets, you can always hear a few words of "master" from time to time.
For example, we call drivers masters, tailors masters, artists masters, roadside technicians masters, driving school coaches masters, building, cement and brick porters masters, and canteen uncles masters ... In short, as long as you are skilled, you can call them "masters" regardless of cats and dogs.
In short, the "master" has almost spread to all parts of the country, whether it is urban or rural, urban-rural fringe. It seems to be the slogan of "customs clearance".
Whether you are a man or a woman, whether you are old or young, whether you have a job or not, whether you have a skill or not, whether you meet and say hello, ask for directions or buy things, you can be called "master" in a unified way.
The original meaning of "master" is the same as "master", and later it is used to refer to people with special skills. Compared with "master", the word "master" spread later. According to textual research, the word first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and its meaning at that time was basically the same as that of "master", referring to the kind of people engaged in teaching, such as "casting a fish to rise to the DPRK and sealing four shoes to be called a master".
In ancient times, the status of a master was relatively high. After all, respecting teachers and stressing morality has always been the traditional virtue of our Chinese nation.
In ancient times, students and master could feel a family. Once people worship Master, they have to accept his discipline. Because the communication between master and apprentice is not only preaching and teaching, but more importantly, guiding students' life and secular human feelings.
Therefore, his concern for students is often no less than his father's concern and guidance for children. Therefore, there is a saying that "one day as a teacher, one life as a father".
For example, Confucius, whom we regard as a saint, and his disciples are both teachers and fathers, and there is a deep affection between teachers and students.
At that time, after the death of Confucius, the funeral was organized by students with their money and kept by students, which lasted for several years. It can be seen how deep this mentoring relationship is.
After the Tang Dynasty, "master" was gradually given another meaning to refer to a class of people with special skills.
For example, in the Story of China and North Korea written by Wei Chituo in the Southern Tang Dynasty, there is such a story:
There was an illusionist who performed in the streets of Beijing, but he was embarrassed to perform this performance. He was embarrassed to apologize to everyone:
The "master" mentioned here refers to a kind of people with special skills.
In addition, "master" is also used to show respect for monks, Taoists, nuns and other monks.
For example, in the Criminal Records of the Yuan Dynasty, it is said that "monks and Taoists steal ancestors, apprentices and fellow students", and the "apprentices" here refer to monks.
Generally speaking, the words "master" and "master" have the same meaning, but they also have their own emphasis. However, in many cases, these two words can be mixed.
Relatively speaking, the emotional emphasis of "master" is biased towards respect, which is equivalent to the meaning of "being a teacher for a day and being a father for life" in our traditional cultural concepts, that is, the status of father and teacher can be regarded as equal, and they are both educators and guides who grow up passers-by.
As a kind of honorific title, "Master" contains more feelings of respect.
What do you think of this? Welcome to share the discussion in the comments section ~
The first word of the two words is "teacher", so the main difference lies in the second words "father" and "blessing".
Say the word "master" first. The word "father" means father. The image of my father in everyone's mind is great, and his love is as high as the sky and as heavy as the mountain. The combination of the word "master" shows that a teacher not only imparts knowledge and skills to students, but also has deep feelings for students and has a far-reaching influence on them. The word "master" can show that teachers are as important to students as fathers, and their kindness is as heavy as mountains.
The word "fu" in the word "master" means tutoring and teaching, mainly to impart knowledge and skills. Compared with the word "master", nothing is more important in students' minds.
As far as I know, Master is called Master, "A teacher for one day, a father for life". Pay homage to master, burn incense and kowtow, and pay tribute to master! You have to ask the guarantor to promise that you will never betray your master's door for life. It is really a promise. The teacher is the person who overthrew feudalism, improved equality and mutual respect for everyone and stopped feudalism after the founding of New China. Most of them are assigned by the unit to learn skills, called masters, or refer to people who are old and have good skills. Those who are older now and have stayed in the enterprise for a long time are collectively called masters!
Master, there's a demon ahead. I'm going to find out.
Master, turn left at the traffic lights ahead and stop.
Master refers to the relationship between master and apprentice. Compared with the corresponding appellation of apprentices, this is a fixed relationship and the five most important positions. Betraying these five positions is equivalent to the level of sin.
Master, on the other hand, is a relatively broad title of respect, usually referring to a respectable person who has nothing to do with himself. Generally speaking, these people have relatively high skills. For example, a waiter can't call a master because he is diligent and unskilled. However, a good cook is a master, because it is a technical job. Therefore, the term "master" is more used in relatively low-level folk occupations, out of respect for the masters in this profession. For example, master, please rub your back.
Master broadly refers to the relationship between the person who teaches knowledge and skills to others and the person who is taught. Educated people call the "receiver" the master. There is an objective relationship between them, such as teacher-student relationship and mentoring relationship. As the saying goes, "once a teacher, always a father". A teacher's biography refers to a person who is not a teacher, a student or an apprentice. Because of work or unfamiliar relationship, they often call each other "masters". For example, people who cut our hair call each other "master" to show mutual respect between people!
