In this book, the author begins with the definition of exegetics and its relationships with other disciplines, then proceeds from the connection between sound and meaning to introduce the combination of Chinese vocabulary and the exploration of word meaning. Through exegetical materials from ancient and modern times, the gap between past and present is bridged. At the same time, it also emphasizes exegetical understanding of modern Chinese, and finally focuses on the place where we live: presenting the face of Taiwan's languages and constructing complete, systematic exegetical knowledge. The author returns to the essence and original goal of exegetics-using language to explain language. At the same time, continuing the characteristics of the author's series of "journey" works, the book leads readers in an accessible way on a journey through exegetics. It brings exegetics, which ordinary people regard as obscure, profound, and remote, back into your and my daily life. It is not only suitable for use as a university textbook, but is also hoped to allow everyone to read it easily and roam freely through the world of Chinese. 在本書中，作者以訓詁學的定義與其他學科的關聯作為開端，從聲音和意義的聯繫，進而介紹中文詞彙的組合、詞義的探索。透過古今的訓詁資料，打通古今的隔閡，同時也著重於現代漢語的訓詁認識，最後聚焦於我們生活的地方:展現臺灣語言的面貌，建構了完整的、系統性的訓話知識。 本書作者回歸訓詁學的本質和原始目標--以語言解釋語言。同時延續作者一系列「之旅」著作的特色，用深入淺出的方式帶領讀者開展一段訓詁學的旅程。將一般人視為冷僻精深又遙遠的訓詁學帶回你我生活當中。不僅僅適合作為大學教科書使用，更期待讓每一個人都能簡易上手閱讀，盡情遨遊於漢語 的天地中。
