Zhen (pinyin: zhēn) is a second-class commonly used Chinese character. This word began to appear in the Warring States script, which belongs to pictophonetic characters and comes from the bamboo salty sound. The original meaning of "proverb" is a tool for sewing clothes, that is, a needle for later generations. The word "needle" is bamboo needle, followed by metal, so it is also called "needle" and "needle". Proverbs can be used to sashimi, achieve the purpose of treating diseases, and play the role of warning and persuasion. It is also extended to a style with exhortation as the main content.

Pro and needle

Proverbs can not only sew clothes, but also cure diseases. The ancients invented "acupuncture to treat diseases" long ago, but the "needle" for treating diseases at that time was made of stone and called "proverbs stone". In this way, "proverbs" have new functions and meanings. Later, the meaning of "true" and "healing" was extended to exhortation and criticism (healing is in the heart). In ancient times, some wise kings spoke publicly and ordered officials to point out his shortcomings, which was called "Prince Que". In ancient times, there was a style of writing that specifically advised and warned readers. This style is called a proverb. ?
