Money is not just a symbol of a country, but also a lot of cultural elements of a country. In everyone's impression, the renminbi has a very rigorous production logic, and every article above will undergo various fine treatments, but if you are told that there is a typo on the renminbi, will you believe it?
This so-called typo is actually the word "circle", and many people may not notice why we use how many yuan instead of currency when writing, and the garden on the yuan is different from the writing one.
This typo was not a problem with the staff in charge of printing the renminbi at the time, and it had to be used in the end due to the large-scale printing factor. This is actually inseparable from the culture of the mainland.
Some people think that if it is linked to culture, it may be because in ancient doctrines it is emphasized that people should be smooth, but they must not lose their righteousness, so the use of metaliteral characters means that you must be smooth when fighting with others, and you must also have your own bottom line. That's why this usage is passed down. This is not wrong, but it is not correct, and there have been some statements about this.
Regarding the typos in the renminbi, we must start with the mainland's currency reform. In the past, the amount of money circulating in the mainland was not large, and many of them can now buy things for a few dollars and a dozen dollars, and in the past, it only took a few cents, so the previous currency face was relatively small. Until the Republican period, the appearance of Yuan Datou coins was represented by "circle" on Yuan Datou coins. At that time, people were also accustomed to using "circle" to represent currency.
First of all, we must know that the traditional habit of the mainland is the round sky, and only reunion is what everyone wants to see. If you open the historical materials, you will find that not only in a work often appear that the copper plate will be round, this is in the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, even if the currencies of various countries are different, but there will be a round factor in it.
Although in the course of history, the currency of the continent has always undergone various forms of transformation, but it has always been based on the circle. Over time, this was also cultivated as a habit, and the circle became a situation in the currency.
The first dynasty to appear "Yuan" was the Tang Dynasty, and when the Tang Dynasty was just established, because the Sui Dynasty also perished, various forces and warlords fought in confusion, wars were endless, and the currency was devalued. In order to pacify the world, it was necessary to raise military funds to start the war, and because of the urgency of the situation, the Tang Dynasty did not immediately release its own new currency, but continued to use the currency of the Sui Dynasty to trade.
It was not until after the world was peaceful that the Tang Dynasty began to re-mint currency. At that time, the Tang Dynasty chose to add new styles on the basis of the original currency, and had a wide range of Kaiyuan Tongbao, the so-called ingots.
Until the Yuan Dynasty, because the yuan character of the yuan treasure clashed with the royal family, it was eventually replaced with the character "yuan". The later Ming and Qing dynasties also followed the practices of the Yuan dynasty, and over time this formed a culture.
In the impression that only circles can be used to represent money. Therefore, when the mainland made the renminbi at that time, it naturally chose to continue to adopt this habit. Of course, from the strict point of view of literature today, this is indeed a typo, but you must know that this is also a form of cultural inheritance.
One might wonder why not choose to change? The main reason for this is that it has been used to it, and on the other hand, it is actually to continue the customs of currency that have been passed down from the mainland for thousands of years. So it's normal that no changes were made at that time.
One person thinks that it may be because of the reform of Chinese characters, because for a long time before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, people were still accustomed to writing traditional characters, and it was not until a long time that simplified characters began to become popular. But before simplified characters became popular, yuan was already used in the yuan.
However, because the spread of information is not as widespread as it is now, if the words on the renminbi are suddenly changed, it will make people wonder whether they are holding counterfeit money, and may also create various panic. Therefore, everyone habitually retains this word, so as not to think that the newly released RMB may be counterfeit currency and many other problems.
In 1955, people expressed how much money was expressed in terms of how many yuan, and it was not until 1996, after the promulgation of the Banking Law, that everyone changed from how many yuan to how many yuan. However, because everyone is accustomed to using circles to represent them, this also led to many people mixing yuan and circle at that time. It was not until the twenty-first century that everyone's thinking gradually unified, and the use of yuan to represent money was formed.
In this way, the circle is not a typo, on the contrary, it is a cultural inheritance, and the renminbi also tells the changes in the mainland currency over thousands of years. However, everyone should pay attention to the fact that only there will be a circle on the yuan, and it is still necessary to use yuan characters when writing in daily life, and only yuan has the corresponding legal effect.
