【分享】中国语言学之父——赵元任

guest

文字Zhao Yuanren obtained a PhD in linguistics from Harvard University. He understood more than 10 European languages and dozens of Chinese dialects. It was reported that in 1920 when he accompanied British philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) to travel around China, Zhao translated Russell's English into the local dialect at each of their destinations.

I didn't intend anybody to send me any books, otherwise I would have left my address.

楼上说的没错。赵元任确实是一个语言天才。他的方言是吴语。

《施氏食狮史》赵元任［近现代］石室诗士施氏，嗜狮，誓食十狮。施氏时时适市视狮。十时，适十狮适市。是时，适施氏适市。施氏视是十狮。恃矢势，使是十狮逝世。施氏拾是十狮尸，适石室。石室湿，施氏使侍拭石室。石室拭，施氏始试食是十狮尸，食时，始识是十狮尸，实十石室狮尸。试释是事。

目前语言学界好像还没有明确指出来吧，不过说赵老先生是中国语言学之父确实不为过！

赵元任确实是天才。哲学博士，语言学博士，教授物理、心理学、语言学、数学、哲学、音乐。实在是世间罕有。
