Did ancient Chinese people usually speak in classical Chinese?

We all know that there was classical Chinese in ancient times, so is it also classical Chinese when speaking? If that was the case, how did it evolve into vernacular?

Ancient Chinese people usually did not speak in classical Chinese, but in ancient Chinese, which was also known as classical Chinese. The classical Chinese was a written language used in ancient China to record official documents, classics, and cultural knowledge. Its grammar, vocabulary, and expression were very different from modern Chinese. Although classical Chinese played an important role in ancient Chinese history, it was rarely used in modern society and was replaced by modern Chinese. Although modern Chinese people may not use classical Chinese in their daily lives, many writers, scholars, and cultural inheritors are still committed to protecting and promoting the cultural value of classical Chinese and passing it on through modern languages and expressions.

Naruto: Back in Ancient Times

Naruto: Back in Ancient Times

A young man from the earth after a slightly tragic and short life gets the option of reincarnating into the naruto world with any timeline of his choosing and wishes. Watch as he lives in the world during the era after the Ten-Tails sealing //// I've read a lot of fanfictions on a lot of anime and what they all have in common is that you'd hardly find one that goes ways back. For example, most Naruto fanfiction I've read only features either Minato's generation, Kalashi's generation Itachi's, or Naruto's you'd rarely see anyone about Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Orochimaru's generation not to talk of Madara and Hashirama. I've always been fascinated by the ancient times of almost all anime that has an ancient past. DXD, DC, Marvel, One Piece, Bleach, Tensura, and many more. With this in mind, I decided to write a story from way back in the era of Indra and Ashura. There will be skills from different animes and mangas, just to let you know. The volume two would have lots of characteristics from Cultivation worlds ways of writing. So please, read at your own discretion. Every ability or theory I come up with is what it is. Deal with it like that or don't bother reading at all. Constructive Criticism is very much encouraged however. This is my first novel guys and I don't own the basic principles in the novel. I either borrow or come up with a different one altogether. **** Join my Patre@n at patre@n.com/JoshRichie2 to support my endeavors. There are 100+ chapters there. *** Hope y'all enjoy it.

Bloodlines of the Ancient Pantheons

Bloodlines of the Ancient Pantheons

This novel is currently on pause. It doesn't mean that is finished or that it will never see another chapter. Since it need a hard editing rework, I will now focus on my New Novel "My Demon Pet System", participating in WSA 2K21. I sincerely hope you loyal readers will show your support by voting it and helping it climb the rankings. I aspire to edit BoAP soon, letting you know more about Dag's adventures. _________________SYNOPSIS_________________ Millions of years in the future, the Sun collapsed, and the existence of the human race on Earth was about to end. Yet, the arrival of the Xis, an omnipotent alien race, saved the human from mass extinction and forced them to live under the surface of the airless, dying planet. Their act wasn't selfless though. The Xis forced the human race to atone for their sins against the Earth by sending them on a journey to explore their ancient bloodlines. They created an artificial solar system with a planet for each of the ancient pantheons, and divided the remains of the human race according to their ancestors. Dag, an earthling kid, is about to undergo the test of his bloodline through an alien machine called "Temporum". The Temporum would send him to the Viking planet, where he will discover an eerie connection with the ancient Gods and learn to wield part of their power. However, he will soon find out that his bloodline hides far more than that... 6 pantheons 6 destination planets A multitude of Gods and supernatural powers. One destiny to fulfill. P.S. This is my first novel. Comments and feedbacks are very welcome. I'm from Italy, so I'm constantly improving my writing skills.
