銜 xián (Category: Noun) 【Original Meaning】: Bit, also known as a horse bit 【Character Formation】: Ideographic. Composed of 金 (metal) and 行 (to walk). Related to riding a horse or driving a horse-drawn cart, hence the inclusion of "行"; "金" reflects that the bit is a metallic object.1. Same as the original meaning (English: bit) - Reference: 1. In the "Shuo Wen": "銜 (xián), the horse's bit." 2. From "Chuci·Ling Huai": "Breaking the reins, to gallop." Note: "铺口铁也" (also known as a bit). 3. In "Zhuangzi·Ma Ti": "Deceptively holding the reins." - Example: - 如: "衔环背鞍" (To repay when one serves as a horse); - "衔橛背鞍" (Indicating serving as a horse to repay kindness); - "衔璧舆榇" (Referring to a king's surrender). 2. Title, rank, the name of the positions and promotions in official hierarchy (English: rank; title) - Reference: 1. From "Feng Shi Wen Jian Ji": "官衔 (official title) is also known as head title. It is called 銜 because of its sequential meaning, similar to how a mouth holds an object, emphasizing continuity." Any title is meant to chronologically incorporate former roles without omission. - Example: - 如: "衔名" (official title and name); - "衔称" (official title and position).
