Reverse evolution of Chinese characters

In the webpage-Chinese multifunctional font, the explanation is as follows:

Simply put:

The man opposite the "reverse" bronze statue is coming towards him. Adding "long" or "walk" means on the road, and adding "stop" to "long" (people's feet) means that the host is walking forward to meet the people coming from the opposite side and say hello. Extend to reverse, forward and backward.

Explain in detail:

There are two theories about the original meaning of the word "inverse" Oracle Bone Inscriptions. When it comes to "comparison", it is the first rule of "rebellion". "Comparison" is like the person on the other side coming to himself. Adding "post" or "line" at the back means on the road, and adding "stop" (people's feet) in the direction of "post" means that the host stepped forward to meet people coming across the street (Luo Zhenyu and Zhao Cheng). The original intention is to meet. Speaking of "rebellion" and "rebellion", "rebellion" is like an inverted human figure, and its original meaning is a rebellious and disobedient person. The original meaning of "rebellion" is welcome, and "rebellion" means disobedience. Rebellion is just homophonic borrowing (Yang Shuda, Duan Yucai).

Later, the word "bi" (human form) was wrongly changed into the shape of a cow, which was suspected to be an "inverse" phonetic symbol. In Jia, there are two usages of "inverse" greeting and "disobedience". Wen Jia's "reverse cutting" means "welcoming attack" and "reverse worship", that is, offering sacrifices out of order.

It is also used as a person's name and country name. In his early days, most inscriptions on bronzes expressed welcome and acceptance.

Father Fu Gai said, "See me instead." . The performance of disobedience and rebellion began in the late Western Zhou Dynasty. During the Warring States Period, King Zhongshan said: "Misfortune comes from the mouth, and happiness comes from the mouth." .

Also used as a name. Pressing "welcome" can also extend the meaning of rebellion and disobedience. Anyone who welcomes something must be in the opposite direction. As the saying goes, "learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat", which still retains the meaning of "welcome". "Against the current" means "facing the water", which is opposite to the direction of the current, so it extends the meaning of the opposite direction. Shuowen: "Inverse, welcome also. From the sound. Kanto said "no" and Kansai said "welcome." Duan Yucai's note: "Inverse, welcome also. Inverse, welcome double sound, the word is omnipotent, such as Gong Yu welcomes the river, and this article also welcomes the river. People nowadays think it is a good thing, but it is actually a bad thing. 」
