摘　　要：叶斯柏森在《语言论:语言的本质、发展和起源》中,通过追溯语言历史的方法,在分析原始语言结构特点的基础上,提出了语言起源于追求娱乐和爱情的歌唱。这种声音的混合物最开始仅仅是情感表达的叫喊,后来转变成专有名词,声音与意义相结合,而通过"隐喻性转移",这种表达能够用于其他场合而使语言得以继续发展。时至今日,叶氏的理论仍具有学术价值和现实意义。In Language, Its Nature, analyzing the structure of primitive Development and Origin, by tracing the language, Jespersen concludes that language history of language and originated from singing stimulated by play and love. At first, the combinations of sounds are just howls of emotions, and then these expressions transform to proper names, combining sounds and ideas. Language can proceed further by a metaphorical transference of the expression to similar situations. Until today, Jespersen＇s theory still has academic value and realistic significance.
