Question: Which of the following is the ancient name for chopsticks?

Answer: 箸

Answer analysis:

1. The three characters "箸", "Zhu" and "Zhu" have the same origin. Because the parts "⺮" and "艹" are written in small seal scripts in similar ways, later generations incorrectly changed it to "zu";

2. In the Song Dynasty, "zu" was changed into "zu" due to the consecutive corruption of "诹" and "耂". The upper part "诹" is written as "咑", and the middle part "肀" is written consecutively;

3. The corresponding division of labor has been done now. "Zhu" takes on most of the meanings of the word. "Zhu" is used in the word meaning of "Rusheng" (zhù), and "箸" is used in the original meaning.
