Features: This book collects one hundred and eighty articles, most of which were published in the of the Xinmin Evening News in recent years, while a few were published in the early 1960s. The articles are all quite short, with the longest not exceeding 2,000 words each. In terms of content, these articles cover a wide range of topics, such as writing, etymology, vocabulary, phonetics, grammar, rhetoric, style, writing techniques, and reference books. It is hoped that this can provide readers with minor help in popularizing Chinese language knowledge and promoting the standardization of Chinese.
