On the Exceptional Fanqie(反切) of Chongniu(重纽) in Jingdian Shiwen(Classics Annotation)
Xiuqin Li · Journal of Southwest Jiaotong University · 2010
There were two basic principles about chongniu in Jingdian Shiwen(Classics Annotation),the law of following the upper character and the law of following the lower final sound,but there were still some exceptional fanqies.By analyzing these exceptional fanqies from the types of fanqie,we found 14 of them are not true exceptional fanqies.Some are wrong fanqies;some characters belong to different chongniu categories in Jingdian Shiwen from in Guangyun(The Collection of Chinese Ancient Phonemes);and some characters have two pronounciations in Jingdian Shiwen.So the chongniu fanqie structures of these 14 fanqies should be adjusted according to its situation in the book,rather than completely follow Guangyun.
