语源研究是中外历代语言学家极为关注的一个课题,中国的语源研究历史久远,并取得了重要的研究成果。清代学者王念孙提出了“就古音以求古义,引申触类,不限形体”的训诂原则,从声音角度探求语源,为汉语语源研究做出了重大的贡献。 Etymological research is a subject of great concern to Chinese and foreign linguists. Chinese etymology has a long history and has achieved important research results. Wang Nian-sun, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, proposed the principle of “exerting ancient righteousness on ancient Chinese characters, extending the category of touching and not limiting the body”, exploring the source from the perspective of sound and making great contributions to the study of Chinese etymology.
