The annotation in the Six Books refers to using the original or close meaning of a character to borrow or extend its original or close meaning, expressing another different concept or meaning. The method of transposition is usually achieved through characters with similar pronunciation, shape, or meaning.

In the process of annotation, the original or close meaning of a character plays an important bridging role, transferring the original meaning to a new context. This approach can enrich language expression, increase the diversity and fun of writing.

When using transliteration, attention should be paid to the correlation between the new meaning and the original or close meaning to ensure the accuracy and coherence of expression. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the rationality and ease of understanding of the transfer note to avoid ambiguity or confusion.

Zhuanzhu is a synonymous word derived from the same root, used to explain each other. For example, the two characters "kao" and "lao" originally refer to the elderly. The interpretation of the word "kao" is "laoye", and the interpretation of the word "lao" is "kaoya".
