What does July mean in the Book of Songs?

July filariasis refers to the July of the lunar calendar, which is the turn of summer and autumn.

July filariasis comes from the Book of Songs, which is a national style. The original text is "July filariasis, September clothes. The first day, Li Lie was attacked the next day. No clothes, no brown, why die? On the third and fourth day, I stood on tiptoe. I am very happy to be in the south with my daughter-in-law. "

The article points out that the weather turns cold in July of the lunar calendar, and just after dark, you can see the big Mars falling from the west. The first sentence is an introduction, and the weather is getting cold. The last sentence is to stay. It's time to sew the cold clothes made by Changli. If you want to observe today, you have to wait until August and September in the solar calendar.

Debate on the meaning of "July filariasis";

On July 2, 2005, Yu Muming gave a speech at Renmin University of China. Ji Baocheng, chairman of the National People's Congress, said in his welcome speech: "July is full of fire, but it is not just the weather that is full of enthusiasm." This incident triggered a wider discussion on the correct use of "Fire in July" and even the revival of Chinese studies.

Some people think that this is a misuse, which is inconsistent with Renmin University's efforts to promote the revival of Chinese studies and should be corrected. On the other hand, it is not surprising that this semantic evolution can be seen everywhere, such as words like tomorrow's yellow flower (unofficial recognition of yesterday's yellow flower).

On the contrary, this is a normal text change. July in the contemporary solar calendar is equivalent to June in the lunar calendar, which is the hottest time of the year. It is very appropriate to describe the hot weather with July filariasis, which belongs to foreign words and conforms to the law of vocabulary development. Nowadays, July filariasis has been used to indicate that the weather is hot. We should accept this meaning as a correct usage, otherwise we will make the mistake of "present people look back on the past".
