Etymology

[edit]

According to Gongyang Zhuan, Duke Huan's 9th year:

京師天子天子 [MSC, trad.]
京师天子天子 [MSC, simp.]
Jīngshī zhě hé? Tiānzǐ zhī jū yě. Jīng zhě hé? Dà yě. Shī zhě hé? Zhòng yě. Tiānzǐ zhī jū, bì yǐ zhòngdà zhī cí yán zhī. [Pinyin]
What is jīngshī ("京師")? It's where the Son of Heaven dwells. What is jīng("京")? It means greatness ("大"). What is shī ("師")? It means the multitude ("眾"). Where the Son of Heaven dwells surely should be called by the diction for the multitude's greatness ("眾大").
