There is a character “셓” in the inscriptions on bronze wares of Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and up to now, the academic community is divided on the reading of this character. From the use cases where the character appear in the inscriptions on ancient bronzes, it is used as the appellation of the clan without exception, mainly as the single clan name, and then as the constituent of the compound clan name. However, why the clan is named as “셓” and what is the meaning of its configuration have been rarely mentioned. Combining the latest research results of the history and culture of ancient society and archaeology with the inspection and proofreading of the related words of this character, besides versifying with the handed down literature the paper, the paper holds that the character is actually related to the fishery production in ancient times as the symbol of the clan. The configuration of “셓” is the reflection of an image in which a caught fish is disemboweled and then stretched out by bamboo or branches to dry. And the structural meaning is “薧” corresponding to “鱻”, also known as “鱐” in the literature handed down from ancient times “The Three Rituals”, namely the dried fish said today.

본고는 대외한자교육의 상황과 그 속에 존재하는 문제에 대해 분석하였다. 대외 한자교육은 이제 바닥을 벗어나 교육의 효율성을 증가시켜야 하며, 이 때 한자구 형학의 이론과 방법은 외래 학습자의 상황별 채택과 다양화, 즉 현대 과학정보기 술을 이용하여 다양한 방법으로 중국으로 온 학생들에게 한자의 형태와 구조의 의도, 구건 조합의 방식과 고금자의의 동이(同異) 등을 체감하게 하고 이를 통해 대외한자교육의 좋은 모범으로서 새로운 교육모델과 교육 방법을 제시해 줄 것으 로 생각한다. 동시에 한자와 중국어 어휘의 의미, 한자와 중국 문화의 밀접한 관계 를 이해하도록 해야 한다.
