Features: This book is a specialized work on the interpretation of special vocabulary in Tang, Song, Jin, Yuan, and Ming Dynasty poetry, lyrics, and qu. It is not only an indispensable tool for reading these classical literary works but also holds significant reference value for the study of vocabulary and grammar in the history of the Chinese language. Particularly in terms of research objects, it breaks through the narrow confines of traditional "minor learning" (), which was limited to the "classical interpretations and old meanings" of the pre-Qin and Western Han periods, and pays attention to poetry, lyrics, and qu from the Tang Dynasty onwards, which preserve more spoken language materials. This should be a highly meaningful and pioneering work.
