Abstract
Gu Jin Zi, are the products of differentiation in the evolution of Chinese Characters. Certain characters with over-loaded meaning made communications difficult, while Gu Jin Zi had been created to differentiate meanings. A close relation can be traced between Gu Jin Zi and regularization of Chinese characters: the regularization will not succeed unless it is carried out with the features of Chinese characters as its significant reference. Only in relative sense can we talk about a regularized system of Chinese characters.
