Monasteries were religous communities, they served as a place of comfort and community. A monasterie was sort of like a safe haven at the time because church and religion were major factors and everybody, especially knights, valued religon.
中文泛指汉语语族及其书写系统。现代汉语(普通话)是世界上使用人数最多的语言。使用人数已达到十七亿以上。在中国,大陆使用简体汉字,港澳台地区使用繁体汉字。海外华人地区多使用繁体汉字。汉字的起源,有传说中的仓颉造字。我们现在能够确认距今约3000多年的甲骨文已经是非常成熟的文字体系,于1899年被发现。可以考证的汉字发展经历了甲骨文、金文、小篆、汉隶、楷书、行书、草书等过程,可以划分为两个大阶段。从甲骨文字到小篆是一个阶段;从秦汉时代的隶书以下是另一个阶段。前者属于古文字的范畴,后者属于近代文字的范畴。大体说来,从隶书到今天使用的现代汉字形体上没有太大的变化。从汉字跟汉语的关系看,汉字是一种语素文字。汉字代表的是汉语里的语素。汉字有独体字与合体字的区别。从构造上讲,合体字比独体字高一个层次 。合体字可以分成以下 3 类:①形声字。由表示意义的形旁和表示读音的声旁两部分组成;②合体会意字。是会合偏旁的字义来表现整个合体字的意义;③合体记号字。这种合体字的偏旁既不表意,也不表音。跟拼音文字相比,汉字最大的长处是能够超越空间和时间的限制,汉语是全世界唯一的三维文字,既有表音,又有表意,还有表形,是现阶段人类文明中最稳固也是最先进的语言体系 。
