There are many place names with rare characters across the country. How many do you know?
When it comes to place names with uncommon characters, when talking about our great Chongqing, there is a rare character that belongs to our Chongqing that is easy to mispronounce: Fuling. The most famous thing in Fuling is their pickled mustard. The taste is unparalleled. I believe many friends who have eaten it will rave about it. It is precisely because of his mustard that he is famous, and it is precisely because of his name. In an interview with compatriots in Taiwan, the host and guests talked about Fuling's pickled mustard, and there was an endless stream of people talking about it. However, the most critical thing was that they mispronounced the word "Fu" (f?) in Fuling. It is indeed easy to mispronounce the word "Fu". If you don't know this place, it is easy to pronounce the word "Fu" as "pei" or "pei". In fact, the meaning of the word "Fu" is the name of the water "Fujiang", which flows into the Jialing River in the central part of Sichuan Province, China. Furthermore, there is Pixian County in Sichuan, a city famous throughout the country for its bean paste. To be honest, I really didn’t know the pronunciation of this word at first. At that time, my family didn’t know much about this word, so when we were told to go to the supermarket to buy doubanjiang, we all only recognized Pixian Doubanjiang. I remember the beginning, the first time I came into contact with this word. If I don’t know this character, I often interpret it by recognizing half of the character. The left side of the character PI means despicable, so at that time I always felt that this character was pronounced as (bei) instead of (pi), so I usually spoke and talked about it. I don't dare to say this word out loud. With our Chongqing accent, Pixian County Pi has never felt that I really know this word very well. Later, I couldn't suppress my inner doubts, so I looked up the dictionary and learned the relevant information. Pi is pronounced as (p?) with the second sound, which roughly means that the vast low-lying areas south of Minshan Mountain can be represented by the word Pi. After paying a little attention, I found that in daily life, there are really many places with rare characters in place names, such as: Bo (b?) Prefecture in Anhui, Lei (lěi) County in Hunan, Beibei (b?i) in Chongqing, etc. There are many things about China. A rare word for a place name.
