了不起的甲骨文丨甲骨文双语小学堂
甲骨文“农”字从林、从森、从辰,像手持“辰”(蚌镰)这种农具耕于草木之中,表示耕作之意。卜辞用作神祇名、祭名、地名。六书中属于会意。
The oracle bone script form of the Chinese character“农” (nóng) combines the elements“林” (lín),“森” (sēn),and“辰” (chén)expressing the sense of agriculture. It visually depicts a figure holding a“辰” (chén),a clamshell sickle,while cultivating the land amidst vegetation. In divinatory inscriptions,this character was used as the name of a deity,a sacrificial term and a place name. According to the Six Categories of Chinese Characters,it is classified as an associative-compound character. (文字翻译 童林)
