The difference between a master and a master?

The difference between a master and a master is that:

The basic meanings of "master" and "master" are the same, and both refer to people who impart skills or knowledge.

Compared with "master", "master" has a wider meaning, which includes all the meanings of "master". In many cases, these two words can be mixed. As long as a person has deep respect for the master of the same age as his father, he can call his "master" the master.

In modern society, there is basically only the word "master" in traditional technical fields such as martial arts, opera and handicrafts. The word "master" is extended to people from all walks of life, such as "master driver" and "master farmer".

In ancient times, teachers were generally male, so "teacher" was compared to "father", but over time "master" became a fixed word, and its practical usage was not limited to men. "Master" is also a respectful name for monks, Taoist priests and other monks.

In Chinese educational dictionaries, "master" and "master" are two concepts closely related to teachers. But in daily life, many people don't know the difference between "master" and "master", and they are often confused.

The word "master" appeared as early as the Warring States period and was used to refer to teachers from the beginning. There is a saying in the nineteenth year of Liang Zhuan: "It is not the master's sin to be a child, but the father's sin." It's the father's fault if an 8-year-old child doesn't go to school to study as a teacher. Saint Amethyst said, "If the son doesn't teach, the father will make a mistake.".

After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the master changed from a general teacher who was engaged in teaching to a teacher who specifically referred to emperors (including emperors and kings). The meaning of master comes from the collective name of a surname and a teacher.

The name "master" not only appeared late, but also was rarely used. The title of "master" appeared in the Tang Dynasty. In Yao Silian's "Liang Shu", it is said that Shao Long, the grandfather of Emperor Gaozu Dehui, was once a Song Guozi who offered wine to lead the East China Sea King. After the Tang Dynasty, "master" began to refer to people with special skills. In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, "Master" was often used as a title of respect for monks and Taoists.

As an honorific title, "master" certainly contains feelings of respect, while "master" generally addresses "teacher" as "father", and the feelings are obviously deeper. Influenced by the concept of attaching importance to teaching and respecting teachers, in the traditional concept, father and teacher have the same important significance, which is reflected in the dictionary of "father and teacher" which was widely used in the old days.

"Father gives birth, teacher teaches" and "One day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father". On the road of a person's growth, the father has the grace of responsibility and the teacher has the friendship of education. The title "master" not only retains the original meaning of imparting knowledge or skills, but also injects more emotional color, showing the ancient people's feelings for teachers as much as for their fathers.
