What is poetry and what are words?

Question 1: What is poetry, what is words, what is poetry? Poetry, a literary genre, reflects life and expresses feelings through rhythmic and rhymed language.

Poetry can be traced back to the Book of Songs, but at that time it was a four-character poem.

Later it developed into Yuefu, ancient poetry and modern poetry.

Yuefu can be sung in chorus.

Ancient poetry does not pay much attention to meter.

Modern poetry pays attention to rhythm and is divided into regular verses and quatrains (five-character and seven-character poems, there are also six-character poems, but they are rare).

Poetry reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty, so it is called Tang poetry.

Ci, stylistic name, a verse form of poetry, developed from five-character poems, seven-character poems or folk songs, began in the Liang Dynasty of the Southern and Northern Dynasties in China, formed in the Tang Dynasty, and reached its peak in the Song Dynasty.

It can be sung to the tune, so it has word cards.

Also known as long and short sentences, as the name suggests, unlike poetry, sentences have lengths.

There are two types: Xiao Ling and Man Ci, which are generally divided into upper and lower columns.

Poetry refers to traditional Chinese poetry represented by modern poetry and metrical poetry.

It is generally believed that poetry is more suitable for "expressing aspirations" and words are more suitable for "lyric emotion".

Poetry expounds the literature and art of the soul, while poets and lyricists need to master mature artistic skills and, in accordance with strict rhythmic requirements, use concise language, dense organization, abundant emotions, and rich imagery to express social life in a highly concentrated manner

and the human spiritual world.

Chinese poetry originated in the pre-Qin Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty.

Chinese words originated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties and became popular in the Song Dynasty.

Chinese poetry originated from the folk and is actually a kind of grassroots literature.

In China in the 21st century, poetry is still favored by the general public, and important poetry schools such as New Guofeng have emerged.

Question 2: What is the difference between poetry and words? Poetry: A kind of literary genre that reflects life and expresses feelings through language with rhythm and rhyme. In ancient China, things that are not happy are called poems, and those that are happy are called songs.

Modernly collectively referred to as poetry: stylistic name, a verse form of poetry, developed from five-character poems, seven-character poems or folk songs, which began in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty.

It was originally a poetry style sung with music. The length of the sentence changes with the tune of the song, so it is also called long and short sentences.

There are two types: Xiaoling and Manci, which are generally divided into upper and lower sections. Poems, lyrics and songs are the three major categories of ancient poetry.

poetry.

Ancient poetry can be divided into two categories: ancient poetry and modern poetry.

Ancient style poetry refers to poetry that does not have strict metrical requirements, while modern style poetry refers to poetry that pays attention to meter and has a fixed format.

Ancient poetry: also known as ancient poetry and ancient style, refers to the poetry before the emergence of modern poetry in the Tang Dynasty. The sentence structure is generally neat and must rhyme, but there are no strict regulations on the number of words, number of sentences, rhyme, level, antithesis, etc., so it can be regarded as a kind of freedom

body.

The number of words in each line of a poem is called a few words.

According to words, there are four-character poems, five-character poems (referred to as Wugu), seven-character poems (referred to as Qigu), miscellaneous poems (each sentence in the poem has more or less characters), etc.

For example, "Shuo Shu" is a four-character poem, "Shi Hao Li" and "Drinking Drinking" are five ancient poems, "Pipa Xing" is a seven-character poem, and "Dreamwalking Tianmu Yin Liu Farewell" is a miscellaneous poem.

Broadly speaking, Chu Ci and Yuefu poetry can also be counted as ancient poetry.

Chu Ci: Originally referring to the songs of Chu, it was created by Qu Yuan and became a new style of poetry with strong colors.

The length and sentences are long, the sentence patterns are uneven, dialects are often used, and a large number of modal particles are used.

Such as "Shejiang".

Yuefu poetry: Yuefu originally refers to the music organization in charge of formulating music scores, training musicians and collecting lyrics (it was established during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty). Later, it also refers to the lyrics collected for music and the works written by later generations who copy the old Yuefu titles or imitate the Yuefu genre.

.

Yuefu poems are generally in miscellaneous words, but also include five words, three words, four words, seven words, etc.

The earliest Yuefu was mainly folk songs, such as "Poetry of Mulan" and "Peacock Flies Southeast".

Literati after the Han Dynasty, such as Cao Cao and his son, Li Bai, and Du Fu, also imitated Yuefu poems and wrote excellent poems. Bai Juyi's new Yuefu poems ("The Charcoal Seller" is one of them) reflected the development of Yuefu poems, writing about current affairs and innovative topics.

Their works all inherit the realism spirit of Han Yuefu, with popular and lively language and full of musicality.

Songs, lines, tunes, quotations, chants, sighs, complaints, and exercises are all Yuefu poetry topics in the Han, Wei, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and were used by subsequent generations.

Modern poetry: Modern poetry refers to the metrical poetry formed in the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, in order to distinguish it from the non-metrical poetry of the past, metrical poetry was called modern poetry or modern poetry.

Modern poetry is divided into three types: rhymed poetry, quatrains, and arranged rhymes.

Rhymed poetry is divided into five-character verse and seven-character verse.

Each poem has eight sentences, and every two sentences is called a couplet.

The first two sentences are called the first couplet, the third and fourth sentences are called the jaw couplet, the fifth and sixth sentences are called the neck couplet, and the seventh and eighth sentences are called the tail couplet.

The two middle alliances must face each other.

Even-numbered sentences should rhyme at the end (usually in plain rhyme, and the first sentence may or may not rhyme).

There are regulations for whether each character should use flat tone (corresponding to Yinping and Yangping in modern Chinese) or oblique tone (corresponding to rising and falling tone in modern Chinese).

For example, "Passing the Old Friend's Village" is a five-character rhymed poem, and "Wearing the Official Army Takes Henan and Hebei" is a seven-character rhymed poem.

Quatrains are also called cut-off sentences and cut-off sentences, because their form is very similar to cutting off half of a rhymed poem.

Either five words or seven words.

Each poem has four sentences, and the second and fourth sentences must rhyme (usually with flat tone rhymes). There are also regulations on whether each word in the sentence should be used in flat tone or oblique tone, and the quatrains can use antithesis or not.
