梁简文帝萧纲《咏内人昼眠》一诗中“夫婿恒相伴，莫误是倡家”之“倡家”一词，学者们普遍理解为“歌女、艺人”，与风流、放荡等内涵相联系，因而这两句诗便有了“露出了狎客的嘴脸”、“轻薄”等诸多批评。实际上“倡家”一词来源于《古诗十九首》之“青青河畔草”一诗，“倡家女”和“荡子”是一个吟咏离别思念的传统主题。在一系列的诗作吟咏中，“倡家女”寂寞孤独的形象被定格，“倡”字就成为离别、孤单、思念的象征，是隐喻的语言符号。由于学界对“倡家”一词的误解，导致了长期以来对诗意的误解和曲解。%Xiao Gang, the emperor of Liang Dynasty, wrote“With husband as her companion, she shouldn’t be taken as a singsong girl”in his Poetry Wife Sleeping in the Day. However,“a singsong girl”has always been misunderstood as and connected with dissoluteness;the line is correspondingly criticized severely for frivolity and manner of a whoremaster. In fact, “a singsong girl” originated from Grass along the River in Nineteen Ancient Poems, in which“a singsong girl”and“an outcast”are a traditional subject matter to chant separation occasion of loved ones.“A singsong girl”is in fact a symbol of a lonely character, and“Singsong”is a metaphor of separation and loneliness. This poem has long been misunderstood with the distortion of referring to“a singsong girl”.
