"It's a typo, why hasn't it been corrected?"
I don't know if you have carefully read our RMB?
In addition to looking at the amount of it, there are actually many points above that are worth studying.
If you look closely, you will find that there is actually a very obvious typo in our renminbi.
But what makes it strange is why this typo has never been corrected.
The "typo" of the renminbi
No one will dislike the renminbi, and this statement is very true.
You must know that the renminbi is the legal tender of the mainland, and it occupies a very important position in people's daily life.
Whether it is food, clothing, housing or other things, it can be said that it is completely inseparable from the RMB.
Although electronic payment has become very popular, no matter how it develops, the essence of our transactions is actually RMB.
Especially for some older people, they follow the trend of the times, but they can't move forward with the pace of the times.
They don't know how to play with smartphones, let alone use electronic payments, so they can only retain the habit of paying in cash.
However, even if electronic payment is very popular, the position of the RMB is unshakable, and in some specific scenarios, we can only use the RMB.
The renminbi is issued by the state in a unified manner, and in the process of printing, it can be said that it has gone through layers of checks.
However, in this case, someone discovered that there was a typo on the renminbi.
If you have 10 yuan or 100 yuan in your hand now, you can take it out and take a closer look.
You know, in 1995, the mainland clearly stipulated in the "People's Bank of China Law" that the unit of RMB is the character "yuan".
Nowadays, in the process of learning to recognize words, what they learn is also one yuan, two yuan, not "one circle, two circles", such an obvious typo, they can see at a glance.
Although the mainland stipulated the use of the word "yuan" in 1995, the word "yuan" was still very clearly used in a set of renminbi issued that year.
It can be said that since the mainland's renminbi was first introduced in 1948, it has been more than 70 years old.
During this period, the people of the whole country used the renminbi all the time, but this typo has not been corrected, what is going on?
Knowingly?
If no one is aware of this typo, this statement is actually very unrealistic, after all, people use the word "yuan" in their daily lives.
Just take a look at this "circle" on the yuan, and it is estimated that many people will find that it is a typo.
In fact, there is no right or wrong way to use the words "yuan" and "yuan" in the renminbi, and the word "yuan" is not a typo.
Even if we go to the "Xinhua Dictionary" to find the yuan character now, we can find that it is actually synonymous with "circle" in a sense, and there are actually some historical factors in this.
In fact, in the earliest days, there was no concept of money at all, and people usually bartered for goods.
It wasn't until Qin Shi Huang unified the currency that there was a very unified standard of measurement, and after that, no matter which dynasty it went to, all had a unified currency.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the exchanges between the mainland and foreign countries at this time could be regarded as some progress, so some coins were imported from abroad.
And these coins, which are the copper coins we see in the TV series, look round as a whole, so people also called it silver yuan at the time.
However, at that time, the silver dollar was just a concept, and did not represent a specific number, and people could only use the method of weighing.
In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, the silver yuan in people's hands was also processed in a series of ways, and became a unique "currency" in the mainland.
If we look back at the history of money, we can find that no matter what time the coins were, the shape was almost circular, such as foreign yuan, silver yuan, Yuan Datou, etc., without exception.
In fact, this circle also has a meaning, it is not only taken from the word "circle" in the round heaven and place, but also full of people's blessings for the fulfillment of a new life.
Therefore, this round word actually represents people's wishes for a better life.
In fact, in the unit of RMB, the yuan and the yuan actually represent the same meaning.
However, many people find it strange that after the state stipulated the new banking law, it has clearly stated that the word "yuan" will be used as the unit of RMB, why has the word "yuan" on the RMB not been modified?
Why has it not been changed to this day?
With the development of the times, the style of banknotes is constantly changing, but the only thing that has not changed is the "typo".
In fact, in the hearts of many people, the round word is not a typo, but a witness to history.
In 1948, the banknotes were actually issued in traditional characters, and it was not until 1956 that simplified characters were gradually implemented.
It wasn't until 2001 that simplified Chinese officially became the official language of the mainland.
In this process, the word "circle" is actually the most frequently used word, and it is also a general way of circulation, and people have long been accustomed to its existence.
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, people's education level was actually not so common, and there were even more people who could not read big characters.
However, these words on the renminbi are known to everyone, and the national degree of the word "yuan" is far greater than that of "yuan".
In fact, there is also a saying that the existence of the word "yuan" on the renminbi is actually an anti-counterfeiting measure, after all, there are too few strokes of the word "yuan", so it is very easy to be imitated.
The "circle" is relatively full of strokes, and the various structures are also very complex, so it is actually very difficult to fake them.
Besides, whether it is in terms of history, culture or language, the word "yuan" actually has a very important meaning, it not only represents money, but also represents our traditional culture.
In fact, whether it is "circle" or "yuan", this is not a typo, they all represent some history and culture.
Behind these words, in fact, they all have a history of their own.
After all, the RMB is the "face" of our country, and it is impossible for the country to make such a major mistake in this.
Therefore, in the process of printing, the first set of renminbi in the mainland still retained the use of the word "yuan", and it has not changed until now.
Although the renminbi has rarely appeared in people's wallets, but has become an electronic payment, this cannot affect its status in people's hearts.
