Lingzi 領字, which act as a bridge connecting sentences and images, played a significant role in the development of new lyrical formats in changdiao (urtiin duu) 長調. While many studies have previously analyzed the function, properties and forms of lingzi, insufficient attention has been paid to their structural features and aesthetic meanings as expressed in changdiao. Based on the findings made in earlier studies, this article investigates the relationship between the structural features and aesthetic meanings of lingzi. First, it is important to point out that we can divide lingzi into two types - verbs and adverbs. In verb form, lingzi focus the emotions and display the lyrical self, whereas in adverb form, they specify a certain temporal and spatial image. Second, from the perspective of phonetics, lingzi, which are usually qusheng 去聲 characters allocated to low musical notes, are responsible for the expression of emotion. This latter characteristic is also important in the internalization of personal aesthetic experience and the combination of scene and emotion. Lastly, the relationship between lingzi and lingju 領句 can be divided into"antithesis" and "narrative." The former can be observed in the spatial arrangement of ci, while the latter reveals narrative time. In sum, by analyzing the distinctive features of lingzi in changdiao, it is hoped that this study will serve as a foundation for further investigation into changdiao aesthetics.
