Let's take a look at Mr. Deng Feng's article "Chen, our proud surname" and his interpretation of "Chen".

"... I found that the young people in our family don't know enough about our proud Chensurname. I don't want to make a long speech. I only refer to Kangxi dictionary, which is the most authoritative and accurate in phonetic notation, interpretation and exegesis.

The note on the word "Chen" was copied down intact. .................................................................................................................................................................................. (Dunfeng Note: Sincerity is sincerity. Confucius said that God helps those who are sincere. No wonder the word Chen is pronounced Chen. The word "Chen" in Shuo Wen Jie Zi is extended to "Chen". The word "Chen" is also often used as the word "Ye". (Dunfeng Note: Therefore, it is not surprising that Chen pronounced Chen Ye! )。 According to Er Ya Shi Shu Zhu, Yan, Dai and the area around 1 1 century BC were called "faith" and "change". (Dunfeng Note: Honesty and trustworthiness are called "Chen"). It is said in the Notes to Zuo Zhuan in the Spring and Autumn Annals that according to dialects, the word "Kuang" can be written as "Kuang", and the pronunciation and meaning of the word "Kuang" are the same. (Dunfeng Note: No wonder some places read the word "Chen" as Chen! )"。

Shuowen also said: "Strictness, wearing and loyalty". Please note: Gubeiyan is today's northern Hebei, the western end of Liaoning, and Beijing. So Hebei is nicknamed Yan. Therefore, there is a saying in "Langtaosha Beidaihe": "The heavy rain falls on the secluded swallow, and the white waves are sky-high." As can be seen from the above, in fact, the northern region will read Chen very early.

Some text reference books such as Xinhua Dictionary are marked with the word "Shen" as well as the current pronunciation. The so-called "old reading" refers to some places and aspects before the promulgation of the Chinese Pinyin Scheme. (For example, the Ming Dynasty's "Wu Hong Zheng Yun" is pronounced: then cut, and the word "hen" is flat. I went to study Shen in Ming Dynasty. The Chinese Pinyin Scheme is a legal scheme adopted by the National People's Congress. It is also an international standard for spelling China names and place names.
