A One syllable article (Chinese: 同音文章; pinyin: Tóngyīn wénzhāng) is a concept in Chinese literature which describes an article consisting of only one syllabic sound, where homophonous words of different meanings yet one syllable exclusively form the entirety of the literary piece. Such pieces of literature are generally, if not exclusively, written in Classical Chinese. Such forms of writing are possible due to the large number of homophones in the Chinese language.
