Monographs refer to Chinese characters that are inseparable and belong to a single whole. Common letter combinations are moon, mountain, water, cow, sheep, dog, sky, vertical, up, down, one and so on.
Monosyllabic writing means that a Chinese character has only one form, not two or more forms. Most of these characters are simple hieroglyphs and signifiers. Because this kind of words evolved from pictures, each word is a whole. For example, the sun, the moon, mountains, water, cattle, sheep, dogs, health, man, stop, son, lattice and elegance are all unique pictographs; Such as heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven, earth, heaven, Are unique reference words. A character should not be divided into two or more parts. Among them, components should be etymologically independent.
Monographs account for a small proportion of temporary Chinese characters, and most Chinese characters are composed of two or more forms. However, the position of the letter combination is very important. They are not only used as independent characters from ancient times to the present, but most of them are also components of combined characters. As radicals, they form compound words with strong word-formation ability, which makes Huizi the core of Chinese character system.
There are the following combinations to form a single character:
Discrete relationship: that is, there is a certain distance between strokes and they are not in contact with each other, such as the words "Ba, Er, Chuan, Xin and Liu".
Connection relationship: that is, the strokes are connected with each other, such as "people, workers, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people".
Cross relationship: that is, strokes cross each other, such as "ten, thirty, Zhang, husband, well, car, force" and so on.
Comprehensive relationship: that is, discrete, connected and crossed relationships are integrated together. A Chinese character includes several stroke combinations, such as "towel, length, book, nothing, hand, ox, scholar and hair".
