[00:15] The term Kaiti (楷体) refers to modern digital fonts that model this style. 2) 汉字不灭，中国必亡 [0:39] were the words Luxun spoke in 1936, reportedly on his deathbed. 3) The book [1:51] that kicked off the Movement for a Phonetic Alphabet (切音字运动) in 1892 was《一目了然初阶》。 4) The May Forth Movement [2:19] was originally a student protest against the unfair terms of the Treaty of Versailles post-WWI, but became a broader movement that questioned traditional Chinese values and social structure. 5) Even before WWII, the Communist party in China had been gathering support and fighting against the Nationalist party [2:43] since the late 1920s. The Chinese civil war was put on hold during WWII as they combined forces to fight the Japanese, and ended with the Communists' victory in 1949. 6) The Chinese Written Language Reform Association [3:01] was not a government group, but was working in close ties with the government. 7) The Chinese Written Language Reform Research Committee [4:00] formed in 1952 was an official government organization. They continued the work of the earlier association and merged a lot of the members as well. 8) Mao said the proposed 6 systems [4:59] were still too difficult for the common countrymen. 9) The first round of simplified characters were introduced in several stages [7:03]. The first set of 57 characters were used in select newspapers and periodicals in May 1955, the second set of 84 in August 1955, and the rest were implemented in 1956 when all the simplified forms became official. 10) The first draft of simplified characters in January 1955 contained 798 simplified characters, 251 simplified components (constituent elements), and a reduction of 400 obsolete variant forms; compared to the 515, 54, 1050 in the final draft [7:17]. 11) The conference [7:45] also officially recognized the use of Arabic numerals in dates and quantities in Chinese writing. 12) During the Hundred Flowers Campaign [8:44], the people criticized all aspects of government, not just the language reform committee. 13) Pinyin suffered further pushback during the cultural revolution because it was seen as foreign influence, and many people also blamed the language reform committee for turning against Mao's orders for a "national in form" writing system. 📚 REFERENCES: Linguistic Unification (read this first): https://www.globalasia.org/v12no2/fea...
