Word usage
- Note1."序言" is different from "绪言". "序言" is a relatively independent article, which should belong to the category of practical writing. "绪言" is the part that explains the purpose and content of the whole book at the beginning of academic works. It belongs to the work itself and cannot be independent of the work. 2. "序言" cannot be written as "叙言".
