About 6000 years ago, there were more than 50 kinds of carved symbols. They are neat and regular, with the characteristics of simplified Chinese characters, which scholars think may be the germination of Chinese characters.
The formation system of Chinese characters is the Shang Dynasty. Archaeology confirmed that it had developed to a fairly high level in the early Shang Dynasty, and one of its main features was the appearance of Oracle Bone Inscriptions.
The evolution of Chinese characters is a process of gradually standardizing and stabilizing Chinese fonts.
Chinese characters are an ideographic writing system with about 10,000 kinds, of which about 3,000 are the most commonly used. These 3000 Chinese characters can form an infinite number of phrases, and then form various sentences.
Chinese characters have changed for more than 6000 years, and the evolution process is as follows:
Oracle Bone Inscriptions → bronze inscription → seal script → official script → regular script → running script.
