汉字令人好奇

分类:美国中国文化乐趣

西方人包括美国人很早就对汉字有神秘感,非常好奇。喜欢在身上刻图案的人,经常选上几个汉字。读过一点中国历史的人,往往知道仓颉(Ts'ang Chieh 或 Cangjie)造字,而且知道有六种造字方法,象形(Pitcographs)、指事(Indicatives)、会意(Ideatives)、形声(Harmonics)、转注(Transmissives)、假借(Borrowed words)。现在学习中文的人越来越多,五花八门的服务也就应运而生。有一种服务是给人起中文名字。不但开门营业,而且已经开发出软件,建立了网站。比如这里就有一个起中文名字的网站(链接)。试了一下,敲入乔治.布什(George Bush),它起的名字是“白快荣”。
