Abstract

The main purpose of verbal activity is to exchange information, and the language used in verbal activity can also realize a pleasing function. According to people’s awareness of language’s pleasing function in language use, the pleasing function of language can be divided into two types: explicit pleasing function and implicit pleasing function. According to the object of language’s pleasing function in verbal activity, it can be divided into three types: others-oriented, self-oriented and two-way pleasing functions. Because language pleasure is connected with the deepest experience of human nature, the use of language satisfies the human needs and realizes the dynamic balance of life, thus realizing the aesthetic pleasure.
