What is the use of learning classical Chinese?

Develop a sense of language. You may think that English has a sense of language, but in fact, Chinese also has it. Read the Book of Songs and read nineteen ancient poems. The words, allusions, and artistic conceptions in them are actually very beautiful. This is the source of our Chinese culture. As a Chinese, of course you should study hard. If a foreign friend asks you in the future what is the beauty of our culture, you can’t help but tell it~ This is our cultural history~

There are many works written by ancient sages, which not only contain the philosophy and wisdom of life, but also the trajectory of historical development. To put it bluntly, classical Chinese is just a tool like other languages, and the tool is to use it to read those works. Because of our current language environment, we have to rely on recitation and translation to learn, just like learning English. In terms of professional knowledge, if you don't understand classical Chinese, how can you read classics such as the Huangdi Neijing and the Compendium of Materia Medica? The classical Chinese texts written by the ancients are indeed of a very high level. In terms of historical records, understanding the characters in them and understanding Chinese history will be of great benefit to contemporary people.
