Manchu, should we return to our field of vision and be valued again?It has not completely disappeared from our lives, but has been preserved to some extent. In this dialect, China has gone through many dynasties. Before the rise of the Qing Dynasty, the Han Chinese ruled China. However, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing rose to replace the rule of the Han Chinese, and the world changed, and the Manchus became the new masters. Nurhachi and other founders of the Manchu Qing Dynasty established a new regime, replacing the Han Dynasty as the dominant power of the new era. However, the Han Chinese, who had ruled China for thousands of years, were reduced to a parasitic fence, were discriminated against, and even found it difficult to gain a foothold in the court. This is the cruelty of the change of dynasty, the victim is always a dissident.
Feng Shui takes turns, and no one can always have the last laugh. The Manchu prophecy began during the period when Nurhachi entered the customs. In the early days, they still used their native language, Manchu, as the "Chinese" of the country. Several dynasties in the early and middle Qing Dynasty adopted the Manchu language, but in the later period, the imperial court began to implement a policy of sinicization. Since China had been under the influence of the Han Chinese for the first few thousand years, the emperor believed that reforms should be carried out according to the ideas of the ancients. Despite the initial success of this reform, it was still inevitable that China would be eliminated, and it was the Han Chinese who eventually dominated China, using the Chinese language. Today, the Han Chinese are the largest ethnic group in China, along with many other ethnic groups. However, the Manchus seem to have existed relatively little, and the Manchu language is even less well known. Even the descendants of the Eight Banners of the Manchu people know very little about the Manchu language. It is widely believed that the Manchu language has disappeared.
Some scholars have put forward the idea of saving the Manchu language, not to promote its use, of course, but to make it a part of Chinese culture so that people can understand or even know a little about it. It is not so much that the Manchu language has completely disappeared, but that it has been preserved in the dialects of the Northeast. In the northeast, there are still people who can speak Manchu, for example in the Heihe region in the western part of Heilongjiang. Some culture lovers who are keen on the Manchu language try to make more people know about the Manchu language through teaching.
As to whether the Manchus should be saved, this is a huge project. After all, we have been using Han culture for a long time, and the Manchu language has only existed for a short period of time. It is almost impossible to popularize the Manchu language, and it is possible to study it in depth only by those who are enthusiastic about the Manchu language. It is important to understand that the Manchu language has not really disappeared, but has been preserved in the dialects of the Northeast, where there are still people who speak Manchu.
