三字經漢英對照
《三字經》，是中國的傳統啟蒙教材。在中國古代經典當中，《三字經》是最淺顯易懂的讀本之一。《三字經》取材典故范，包括中國傳統文化的文學、歷史、哲學、天文地理、人倫義理、忠孝節義等等，而核心思想又包括了“仁，義，誠，敬，孝。”背誦《三字經》的同時，就了解了常識、傳統國學及歷史故事，以及故事內涵中的做人做事道理。
在格式上，三字一句朗朗上口，因其文通俗、順口、易記等特點，使其與《百家姓》、《千字文》并稱為中國傳統蒙學三大讀物，合稱“三百千”。《三字經》與《百家姓》、《千字文》并稱為三大國學啟蒙讀物。《三字經》是中華民族珍貴的文化遺產，它短小精悍、瑯瑯上口，千百年來，家喻戶曉。其內容涵蓋了歷史、天文、地理、道德以及一些民間傳說，所謂“熟讀《三字經》，可知千古事”。基于歷史原因，《三字經》難免含有一些精神糟粕、藝術瑕疵，但其獨特的思想價值和文化魅力仍然為世人所公認，被歷代中國人奉為經典并不斷流傳。
