Before the lecture, Teacher Zhu first recalled the last century80Study and life at Northwest Normal University,He said that the starting point of his academic life was here。At the same time, he sent a message to everyone to study hard,Be able to give back to your alma mater in the future。Secondly,Teacher Zhu pointed out,The most basic quality for doing research is curiosity,Be sure to ask why。Ask why in everything,It is the basic quality that a researcher must have。At the same time he emphasized,Doing language research should start from two dimensions,That is, diachronic angle and synchronic angle。It must be within the scope of 188bet casino history,Understand the changes in 188bet casino and the reasons for the changes,Predict the future development of 188bet casino。Again,Teacher Zhu pointed out that theory must be paid attention to when doing research,Theory can provide us with a new perspective for doing research。


188bet casino


The beginning of the lecture,Teacher Zhu first introduced the topic of the lecture from Li Bai's "Quiet Night Thoughts",Why did “bed” have two meanings: bedding and seating in ancient times。Compare the explanations in "188bet casino Dictionary" and "188bet casino Dictionary",Tracing to the source,Analysis of glyphs through unearthed objects and "sitting" in "Shuowen Jiezi", "Warring States Ancient 188bet casino Dictionary" and unearthed slips,Describes the specific situation of sitting and sitting furniture in ancient China,Finally come to a conclusion,In ancient times,The word "bed" is not a general name for bedding,Just a proper name for bedding。



Secondly,Teacher Zhu emphasized,This situation changed in the Middle Ages,At that time, China introduced it from outside"Hu Bed"。Through handed down documents and ancient paintings,Teacher Zhu proved that the "Hu bed" is just a kind of sitting tool,Not a bedding that can both sit and lie down。Throw a question,Hu Bed is obviously not a "bed",Why is it also called "bed"?Why do the new seats have no other names,To refer to it as "bed" with a different function?Using the method of Sanskrit-188bet casino comparison and the same scriptures and different translation materials,Find out after combing through a large number of 188bet casino translations of Buddhist scriptures,“Hu Bed” is the creation of “foreign” people。He further pointed out in detail after combining India’s geographical environment and climatic conditions,In Sanskrit,Bedding and seating have different terms to refer to,The two are completely different,Although there are a few words that refer to both;In several Sanskrit Buddhist texts, with verbSittingRelevant ones mainly refer to seatsāsana, with verbSleepRelated mainly refers to beddingśayanaBut in early 188bet casino translations of Sanskrit classics,śayana meaning beddingmostly translated asBed, meaning a seatāsanaThere are three translation methods——“seat (sitting)”“SeatingandBed。In other words,The translator is translating the words referring to the seat,also translated asBedBedIt has two meanings, one refers to bedding and the other refers to sitting furniture.

Finally, Teacher Zhu came to the conclusion,indicating seating"Bed"can be seen in the 188bet casino translation of Buddhist scriptures in the Eastern Han Dynasty,and means seatingBedThe fact that there are far more examples in translated scriptures in various medieval times than in native documents,Infer the origin of this usage,Probably originated from the 188bet casino translation of Buddhist scriptures that began in the Eastern Han Dynasty,Or at least it was widely used in the translation of Buddhist scriptures in the Eastern Han Dynasty。

End of lecture,Teacher Zhu said,The conclusion is not important,The most important thing is that the lecture process inspires and helps everyone。At the same time,He told everyone,Doing language research,Language is the carrier of culture,You must have a deep understanding of the content of language records。This involves archeology and the history of cultural exchange。So not only must you be curious,Still interested。He mentioned that he was in the process of studying and doing research,Dedicate half a day every week,Look through magazines in other disciplines。Last,He emphasized that his research should be understood within the scope of synchronic linguistics and historical linguistics,Recommended the textbook "Historical Linguistics" by Xu Tongqiang。



Interactive session of lecture,Professor Hong Shuai summarized Mr. Zhu’s wonderful lecture,He first thanked Teacher Zhu for his wonderful lecture。He pointed out,New materials must be used for research,New methods can solve problems。Professor Yang Tongjun, School of International Cultural Exchange, Northwest Normal UniversityConducted questions and exchanges on Teacher Zhu’s lecture,He said that Teacher Zhu’s lectures not only teach people to fish,Teach a man how to fish,The methods of academic research are permeated throughout the lectures。Teacher Ren Li also exchanged questions with Teacher Zhu from the perspective of dialect。

Last of Lecture,PhD student Zhang Hanwen、Liang Lidong also asked a question,Teacher Zhu answered the questions one by one,Also responded to questions from the live broadcast room。This lecture ended successfully in a friendly and warm atmosphere。
