女书是世界上唯一已知的女性专用文字，流传于中国湖南江永县一带。据考证，它在明清时期逐渐成型，以当地方言为基础，用毛笔书写在折扇、紙条或绣品上，多用于表达姐妹情谊、婚礼祝词与人生感悟。女书字体纤细、倾斜如柳叶，结构独特而富有韵律。20 世纪末，学者对女书展开系统抢救与研究，使这一珍贵的女性文化遗产重现于世。2006 年，女书习俗被列入首批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。如今，当地通过女书研学、数字档案与时尚设计等方式，让“世界上最柔美的文字”焕发新生。

参考翻译

Nüshu, the world’s only known writing system created and used exclusively by women, originated in Jiangyong County, Hunan Province. Taking shape during the Ming–Qing era, it is based on the local dialect and was traditionally brushed onto folding fans, paper strips, or embroideries to convey sisterly bonds, wedding blessings, and reflections on life. With its willow-leaf slant and graceful, rhythmic strokes, Nüshu is instantly recognizable. Intensive documentation and preservation efforts in the late 20th century brought this rare female legacy back into the public eye. Listed among China’s first national intangible cultural heritage items in 2006, Nüshu now gains renewed vitality through study tours, digital archives, and fashion design—truly living up to its reputation as “the most elegant script on Earth.”
