The breeze winds down the bamboo path.

Breeze around the bamboo path: West Western jackdaw spins to the moon.

The ancients compared the deep landscape of bamboo forest to lingering breeze and singing sound, similar to the rotation towards the moon, and regarded responsive poetry as the yearning of past lives. The overflowing breeze intoxicated the readers of the ancients and the present, and the crow sprinkled a crescent moon to connect the heart with the night sky.

Couplets, also known as antithesis, door-to-door, spring stickers, Spring Festival couplets, couplets and so on. It is a antithesis written on paper, cloth or carved on bamboo, wood and columns. The antithesis of couplets is neat and even, which is a unique artistic form of Chinese. Couplets are the treasures of China traditional culture.

Language root-seeking

The most essential feature of a standard couplet is "antithesis". When expressed orally, it is verbal confrontation, and when written, it is verbal confrontation. What is the meaning of language duality? Usually we talk about four items: equal number of words, relative parts of speech, even words and the same syntax. The most important of the four items is the equal number of words and the average score, in which the number of words is equal.

Different from English, "words" are equal, which is essentially "syllables". That is, one syllable corresponds to one syllable. In English, the words "car" and "jeep" are equal in number, but not in syllable. In Chinese, "truck" and "jeep" are equal in number and syllable. The reason why Chinese can achieve "syllable" equality is because Chinese is a language with monosyllabic as the basic unit. Syllables, morphemes and characters are trinity.
