Huang Jigang, the best disciple of Zhangmen in elementary school, once said in "Notes on the Exegesis of Words, Sounds and Rhymes": language precedes words , The birth of words is followed by language. Once the voice is provided, the six books are completed. "Sound and Rhyme Brief Commentary" also has: the sound has the meaning and the shape to be mourned, and then the text emerges.
