Semantically, "widowed" refers to the elderly who have no children or daughters and no one to support them. But in a long historical period, these two words plus "I" are the self-styled of the supreme ruler emperor.
The so-called emperor often calls himself "lonely" in literary works or legendary novels, which is actually wrong. Only the governors in the pre-Qin period and some later governors or warlords on the separatist side called themselves "lonely" or "widowed". It is impossible for a real emperor to degrade himself and "claim to be widowed".
Extended data:
Our country has always called 60 years old "flower" and stipulated this age as the retirement age. At the same time, as China is located in the Asia-Pacific region, this region stipulates that people over 60 are the elderly. At present, the general standard for dividing the elderly in China is over 60 years old.
As far as the age stage is concerned: 45 to 59 years old is pre-senile, which we call middle-aged and elderly people; 60 to 89 years old is old, we call it the old man; More than 90% is a long-lived period, which we call a long-lived old man; Those who exceed 100 are called centenarians.
According to the World Health Organization's classification of the elderly, people aged 65,438+05-44 are called young people, those aged 45-59 are called middle-aged, those aged 60-74 are called young people, and those over 75 are called old people. People over 90 years old are called long-lived old people.
