The Linguistic Society of America held an interesting selection earlier this century.——“The word of the century” Election 。Nominated“The word of the century”Have“ Freedom ”“ Justice ”“ Science ”“Government”“ Nature ”“OK”“Books”“Her”……And the only one who made it to the finals“ Science （Science）”And“Her（She）”。Finally，“Her（She）”Win by a large margin，Got it“The most important word in the 21st century”Honor of。
I remember when I was studying in England more than ten years ago.，Once I talked with my classmates about equality between men and women.，I used to joke.，It is easy for Westerners to create the idea of inequality between men and women, but it is not easy for Chinese people.，The reason is that Westerners often emphasize him or her in their language.（He or She），We Chinese use one word.“He”To sum up men and women。
Be attracted by an interesting election，I looked up the information specially.，I learned that there was no English dictionary before the 12th century.“Her（She）”This word。“She”The word appeared after the 12th century.。And Chinese“Her”Characters have only entered the Chinese dictionary for nearly a hundred years.。
Ancient Chinese poetry、Song Fu、The Third Person Pronouns in the Novel Do Not Distinguish Between Men and Women，Be written without exception“He”。
To“May 4th”Period of movement，Liu Bannong, who studied in France and specialized in languages, believes that，With the rise of the vernacular，In addition, the translation of foreign literature is increasing.，Third person pronouns are frequently used.，If you just use a gender-neutral“He”Words are not enough.。So Liu Bannong translated English drama in 1917.《Dream Soul》Time，Try a new word of your own creation.“Her”。Subsequently, in order to promote the use of“Her”Word，Liu Bannong wrote a popular poem in 1920.《Teach me how not to miss her.》。The poem was later composed by Zhao yuanlun.，Become a famous song in modern times。From now on“Her”The word is officially used in Chinese.，It has been incorporated into the Chinese dictionary.。
Then again，What I said when I was a student in England was just a joke.。Actually，There has always been inequality between men and women in ancient China.、The idea of preferring boys to girls，It was not until modern times that there was a fundamental change.。
For most of Chinese history,，Women have always been outside of social work.。To get a chance like Hua Mulan.，I'm afraid it's the dream of many ancient women.。However，With the development of society，Women's engagement in social work has become a necessity of historical development.。In the 20th century, human society basically transited from agricultural civilization to industrial civilization.，The change of production structure weakens the advantage of male physical strength.，Intelligence and talent become the decisive factors of career.。At the same time，Widespread access to education also makes it possible for women to enter society.。According to some official statistics,，There are some universities in the mainland with more female students than male students.。In my impression.， Hong Kong 、This phenomenon has also occurred in some universities in Singapore.。
“Her”The word was elected as“The most important word in the 21st century”It has epoch-making significance.，It means women will play a more important role in the 21st century.。The 21st century is the era of knowledge economy.，The way to compete will no longer be physical.，It's more about planning.、Promotion、 Communicate 、Contact、Interactive、Service、Coordination……And women's unique sensitivity.、Delicate、Caring、Advantage of attention and sixth sense，Will play an important role in the 21st century.。
So-called，Women are not inferior to men.，That's true。
