会意1huìyì六书之一。会意是说字的整体的意义由部分的意义合成,如‘公’字、‘信’字。‘背私为公’,‘公’字由‘八’字和‘厶’(私)字合成,‘八’表示‘违背’的意思,跟‘自私’相反叫‘公’。‘人言为信’,‘信’字由‘人’字和‘言’字合成,表示人说的话有信用。{combined meaning; associative compound; one of the six categories of Chinese character formation. A Chinese character consists of several elements, which combine to give meaning. For example, 公 gōng comprises 八 meaning ‘against’, and 厶 meaning ‘selfish’, so 公 means ‘altruistic’. 信 xìn consists of 人 meaning ‘human being’ and 言 meaning ‘speak’, or ‘speech’, so 信 means ‘words of a human being are trustworthy’.} |
