In the Han dynasty, scholars interpreted and studied the classics, and the classical interpretation method represented by "eight-part essay" came into being.

Shuo Wen Jie Zi, edited by Xu Shen, a famous scholar in the Han Dynasty, explains the origin, evolution and composition of Chinese characters in detail and has become an important reference book for learning Chinese characters. The phonologists Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan in the Tang Dynasty put forward the theories of "rhyme" and "exegesis", which had a far-reaching impact on the phonological education in ancient China. These phonetic education achievements provide a solid foundation for Chinese character education and philology research.
