Hao

I found this story its a lot more interesting to look at from different angle: First the linguistic information , The historical atmosphere ,and the very personal story of a mother and her child. This very intellectual and emotional the evolution of the written language over the past two thousand years. I was attracted by the stories of the words chosen like Zero, Ten Thousand and good ,which in mandarin is Hao. I feel like within a language,they  usually have history to a words. This story show the idea of scorpion turned into the word for ten thousand,Direct reflection of her own reality.
