How to post Spring Festival couplets? The correct way to paste Spring Festival couplets during the Spring Festival

1. According to the traditional custom, the upper couplet is posted on the right side and the lower couplet is posted on the left side (facing the gate). Because the writing habit of the ancients was to write vertically from the right and vertically from the right; In addition, horizontal criticism is also written from right to left (for example, horizontal criticism is "resigning the old and welcoming the new" and writing "welcoming the old with the new").

2. Look at the writing style of horizontal batch: the order of modern people's writing and reading is mostly from left to right (contrary to the ancients). However, the writing habit of couplets is still from right to vertical, but horizontal criticism is often written from left to right. Therefore, according to the writing method of horizontal batch, the posting of Spring Festival couplets can be divided into two situations: First, if the horizontal batch is written from right to left (for example, the horizontal batch is written as "farewell to the old and welcome the new"), then according to the traditional custom, the first batch is posted on the right and the second batch is posted on the left. Second, if the horizontal batch is written from left to right (for example, the horizontal batch is written as "farewell the old and welcome the new"), then according to the current reading habits, the upper part is posted on the left and the lower part is posted on the right.

Second, the difference between the upper and lower couplets of Spring Festival couplets:

1. Use leveling method to distinguish the upper part and the lower part: the General Principles of Joint Law require the upper part to be leveled and the lower part to be leveled. That is to say, the last word is wrong (pitch rising and falling) in the upper part, and the last word is flat (pitch rising and falling) in the lower part. Such as: Qing Yu in the New Year; Jiajie Changchun. -"Qing" is silent, and "Spring" is flat.

What should I do if the suffix of the upper and lower couplets is the same or the same, or I don't know the same?

2. According to causality. "Cause" is the upper part and "effect" is the lower part. For example: the policy is wise and the direction is positive; A new scene of urban and rural prosperity. -because only the "cause" of "wise policy" will have the "fruit" of "urban and rural prosperity".

3. In chronological order. Time is the first part and time is the second part. For example: firecrackers say goodbye to the old year; Plum blossoms bloom in spring. -"Farewell the old year" comes first, and "Welcome the new year" comes last.

4. According to the spatial scope. Generally speaking, the small one comes first and the big one comes last. For example: diligently manage the family; Unite to build and prosper the country. -The "country" in this pair of Spring Festival couplets is bigger than "home", so "home" comes first and "country" comes last.
