Sichuan dialect ｜ Chen Xinyan: ear nature

Text/Chen Xinyan

For quite a long time, I thought that "ear nature" was a dialect and soil language unique to my hometown of Sichuan.

In the language system of the people, "ear nature" is a noun, which is similar to "memory". A person is so drunk and drunk. When he goes home, he is planted into the water field under the road. The whole body is thin, and he breaks a rib on the left. Essence While changing clothes for him, his wife scolded: "See if you want to have a little ears in the future!?" It means "Watch you will have a little memory in the future." After a while, the man drank again, drunk, and fell. This time the injury was the rib on the right, and the wife was shivering: "It's really (mǎo) to get 'ear -ear'!" Match. The translation is not long -ear, and it is similar to the meaning of not long memory. However, the word "ear nature" seems to be more vivid and specific compared with "memory".

Recently, I read the Dream of Red Mansions and found that the word "ear sex" was also used in the twenty -eighth time: "Everyone said:" Say more more, punish ten cups! Zi, said, "No ears, no longer say. ‘” ——The “ear nature” is not just a dialect, but also a word commonly used by people in the era where Cao Xueqin was in the era.

People should have a "ear -ear". If you make a mistake, someone will hold your ears and tell you that you want to have a "ears", it is not a bad thing.

From the perspective of the term "ear nature", some of the dialects and soil language may be foreign, which may be related to the immigration culture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. While coming to Huili, immigrants also brought the language of their hometown. These languages ​​are fused with the local language, which gradually forms a very flavorful symbol dialect.
