Voyage of the Stars

In the proposal, many linguists believe that this is very necessary, because in the interstellar age, people are likely to hibernate for hundreds of years. If this phenomenon of destroying the language and writing system is not stopped, maybe people will not be able to listen when they wake up from hibernation. Understand what others are saying.

Standardizing the use of language and characters can prevent some foreseeable things from happening, such as people a few generations later being unable to understand previous texts because the language and characters have been polluted and damaged.

The cancellation of blocked words is actually formulated to better implement the contents of the "Several Draft Recommendations on Language and Character Standards".

The reasons written there are very reasonable. If the blocked words are not cancelled, then people's word usage needs will inevitably not be met. In this case, people will inevitably come up with many substitutions, pseudonyms, and variations. words, even phonetic symbols.

As a result, the "Several Draft Recommendations on Language and Writing Standards" will not be able to play its real role. After all, you stipulate writing standards, but do not let people use so many words. Isn't it contradictory?

Words are born from real objects. As long as something exists in real life, there must be a corresponding word expression for this thing. If you block this word, people will definitely use other words to express this thing, unless Erase this thing from the real world forever.

But this is impossible. Just like reproductive organs, they can’t be erased, right?

Yue Yuan saw that in this proposal, language scholars also criticized the harm of this phenomenon to human society on board the Hope. They said: This is prohibited, and that is prohibited. If things continue like this, the Hope Society will not develop like what happened in the United States more than a thousand years ago, with more than a dozen genders appearing.

If it is allowed to develop without intervention, I am afraid that in a thousand years, the word "flower" will not be allowed to appear on the Hope, because flowers are essentially the reproductive organs of plants.

"You all think so?" Yue Yuan looked away from the tablet in his hand and looked up at Lu Xiaofen and others.

"Yes, Chief," Lu Xiaofen nodded and spoke in her clear voice: "In the past period of time, we have also conducted some questionnaire surveys among the people of Hope, and people are basically disgusted with the blocking of words. , especially after the release of the document "On the Impact of Population Plans on the Social Moral System and the Moral Guidelines for Possible Interventions."

"I remember that in a questionnaire survey, a respondent shared his own experience with us. He said that when he contacted a favorite person for a date, the keywords were blocked into a bunch of *** The voice keywords such as mouth-to-mouth *** were also silenced by the system, causing the subject to misunderstand his meaning. But according to him, the spoken messages and typed messages he said at that time were actually broadcast on TV. The content of Su Nu Jing.”

Is it already this serious?

Hearing what Lu Xiaofen said, Yue Yuan couldn't help but think deeply.

In fact, Yue Yuan knew this situation. After all, many of the systems or systems on board the Hope were inherited from the previous Callisto base. System blocking was a legacy of history, not a new regulation after the disaster.

Yue Yuan originally thought that these were delicate diseases, and he had been paying attention to technological matters recently, so that he had neglected many humanistic matters. He did not expect that it had developed to this point now.

After this incident, Yue Yuan finally understood that in the civilization levels mentioned by the mining area patrolmen, a certain technology can be regarded as a symbol of a certain level of civilization, but as a civilization, it is not just technology.

There are also the humanistic elements inherent in civilization such as language, culture, customs, etc., and everything expressed by all human aggregates can be called human civilization.

To manage a civilization, you cannot just focus on technology.

Because other internal factors will also affect the overall direction of humankind. If there are problems with those factors, problems will occur within civilization, which will affect the progress of civilization.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuan said sincerely: "We have done a good job, but this proposal needs to be put to a vote at the conference. You'd better be prepared by then and don't get stuck in the Q\u0026A session."

It is true that he is dictatorial, but there is no need to be arbitrary in this kind of matter. After all, although this kind of matter is important, it is not military and it is not the time to make an immediate decision.

Dictatorship does not mean that everything must be arbitrary. Only by appropriately dividing some powers can other people in other departments be more effectively tied to the new government's chariot. In this way, the new government's rule will become more and more stable.

Therefore, although Yue Yuan was in favor of this proposal, he still wanted to put it to a vote at the conference.

"Don't worry, Chief, we know." Lu Xiaofen said happily. She ran over to find Yue Yuan. The purpose was not to get the proposal passed immediately, but to speed up the process of the proposal being brought to the conference for voting.

Now that her goal was achieved, she was naturally very happy.

In fact, the reason why Lu Xiaofen wants to promote this proposal as soon as possible is mainly because she feels that mankind is still in the post-disaster reconstruction stage, which is equivalent to the restart of civilization.

At this stage, human civilization is extremely malleable. Some historical issues that have become irreversible in the past can also be corrected at this opportunity, or overthrown and started over.

Of course, as a proposal jointly put forward by many linguistic workers, it is not just about blocking words.

The proposal also includes many protection policies and regulations for Chinese characters.

Just like the language and writing policy, in the past there were too many and too complicated contexts, and the forest was big and there were all kinds of birds, so the resistance to reform was naturally great.

Some of these obstacles are still difficult to resolve before.

For example, language policy is a matter of fact. It refers to the state encouraging or blocking the use of a certain language or certain languages ​​through legislation or regulatory means, while language planning is the government or social group's plan to solve the problem of language in social communication. Problems, purposeful, planned and organized intervention and management of language and its use, so that language can better serve society.

Language policies and planning have two focuses: loose and strict. Different focuses will have different effects on society.

Loose language policies are conducive to protecting language diversity, while strict policies may harm the living environment of minority languages.

In the past, there were many people and ethnic groups, and the environment was complex, so even if you wanted to make changes, it was impossible to cover everything. You can imagine how difficult it was to make changes in this area in the past.

But things are different now. There are only so many people left in the human race, and almost all of them are Chinese. The social atmosphere also happens to require it. It is really a good time to implement this kind of reform.
