Being uneducated is terrible! How many of these misinterpreted calligraphy can you recognize?

Confucius Academy


Chinese culture is broad and profound, and Chinese calligraphy is also broad and profound.


Some people don't know much about calligraphy, and it's easy to misidentify some stone carvings and plaques, which makes them laugh!


Mr. Shici will show you how many of them do you recognize correctly?

Recently, a stone carving at the entrance of Qingcheng Mountain in Sichuan has inexplicably become an internet celebrity. Please read below for the specific reasons!

01 “"Herb-picking superman"?

When a netizen visited Qingcheng Mountain, she saw four large characters engraved on a red stone at the entrance of the mountain. She, who did not know much about calligraphy, thought of the scene of Taoist priests collecting medicine deep in the white clouds in ancient Qingcheng Mountain.


So I mistook these words for "Herb Picking Superman". Later, it quickly exploded on the Internet, attracting nearly ten thousand people to watch and forward it.

Correct pronunciation: Dao Wuwei

02 “Slut"?

What? Slut? Say it again!

Correct pronunciation: magnanimity

03 “Fried dry noodles”?

Fried dry noodles? Are you eating on the street? It took me reading it many times to understand it!

Correct pronunciation: Miaoshoujuju

04 “XXXX”?

Columnist Wang Xiaoshan gave an interpretation of this so-called "calligraphy work" that seems very unelegant at first glance as "Chunchi Yanyun".


However, after carefully analyzing the writing of the words "Chunchi Yanyun", some people said that their IQ was insulted!

Forget it, let’s put this aside for now. After all, sometimes calligraphy is so artistic that it makes people doubt their own eyes. If you don’t believe me, read on.

05 “Serve me”?

Correct pronunciation: Wuhou Temple

06 “green tea"?

Correct pronunciation: Chayuan

07 “"Eagle Chase"?

Correct pronunciation: Endeavor

08 “"Women's treasure"?

A woman's treasure? I believe many people have read it wrong.

Correct pronunciation: feel at home

09 “Can Du Fu move?"  

One day I went out to socialize with my boss and went to a magnificent hotel. When I entered the door, there was an antique plaque. I blurted out: "Look! Du Fu can move! ”


Later, the leader never took me out again.

Correct pronunciation: Diligence can make up for weakness

10 “"A good dog is floating around"?

A certain cadre visited a scenic spot and looked up to see a plaque, so he read loudly: "A good dog is floating on the edge!" ” He was instantly embarrassed.

Correct pronunciation: The scenery here is unique

11  “Shandong Mistress Slope"?

In the eyes of Shandong people, this building simply dominates the world. However, it was misunderstood as "Shandong Mistress Slope".

Correct pronunciation: Shandong Museum

12 “"Sheyin cold noodles"?

Xiling Yinshe in Hangzhou has become “Sheyin Cold Noodles” in the eyes of foodies”……

Correct pronunciation: westLingprinting press

13 “"Phoenix died"?

“"Phoenix died", "Phoenix mummy", "Phoenix died"? Phoenix will be unhappy when he hears this!

Correct pronunciation: Phoenix Yu Fei(Refers to the phoenix and phoenix flying together, usually used to wish the newlyweds happiness. )

14 “Bird Town”?

Bird Town? Is this town full of birds?

Correct pronunciation: Wuzhen



15 “I'm looking at the south gate"?

Zhou Enlai: Am I looking at the south gate? Let Premier Zhou see the South Gate. Do you want to stop messing around?

Correct pronunciation: I love Nankai

16 “Becoming a pig at the age of six”?

Being a pig at six years old? He’s still a puppy at eight years old!

Correct pronunciation: Unparalleled in the world

17 “"Global Sister-in-law"?

Are you writing about the sister-in-law of the world?

Correct pronunciation: Queen of Nine Balls(Pan Xiaoting, won the first Asian Games 9-ball gold medal and is known as China’s “Nine-ball Queen”)

18 “Catch the toad and pee”?

This work is mainly made of large seal characters. Many people were confused and couldn't understand what was written on it, so they came up with this interpretation: catch the toad and pee out. This toad is so pitiful.

Correct pronunciation:The future is bright, let’s build on the past and open up the future。If I don't say it out loud, many friends will definitely not understand.

Finally, test everyone ~

These four characters often appear on door lintels. They look familiar but not familiar. Can you recognize them? It is said that it troubled many people.

Poetry friends who know how to pronounce these four characters can communicate in the comment area!

I have to say that Chinese calligraphy is vast and profound, but we still know very little about it and need to practice it in the future.
