1. The introduction 

With the development of the society, economic and culture, China has become an indispensable part of the world stage, and the communication with western countries is becoming more and more frequent. Understanding Chinese and western cultural differences on international communication plays a very important role, and English Euphemism, as an important part of western culture is worth us to study and discuss. 


Euphemism is a form of language expression which in order to seek the ideal communication effect in society communicative activities. It can avoid stimulus for people to get comfort and elimination vulgarity for people to get an elegant, meanwhile it can abandon the trite to novel. This paper analyzes English euphemism from the perspective of pragmatic by introducing its origin, definition and classification, and discusses the relationship between two theories including cooperative principle and politeness principle which are within the pragmatic which makes people understand its necessity and importance, and helps people communicate with each other fluently so as to avoid conflict. Furthermore, it can also help Chinese students understand western culture more appropriately, and improve the students’ English communicative competence.


2. the origin, definition, and classification of English euphemism
2.1 The origin of English euphemism

Euphemism has probably been in existence from the very beginning language. It is a mirror of social psychology. To trace the beginning of euphemisms, we cannot neglect “taboo”. The word taboo generally refers to the prohibition (or ban) on the use of, mention of, or association with particular objects, actions, or persons. The term taboo borrowed from the Tongan language was originally Polynesian. Captain James Cook introduced it into the 18th century. When Cook came to the islands in the South Pacific, he observed a lot of strange social phenomena. For example, some objects can only be used by their leader or only by God and common people cannot touch them; some objects are used only for special purpose not for general purpose. The Polynesian called this kind of phenomenon “taboo” which means“holy” or “untouchable”. Because the observance of taboo can be found in many areas besides in Polynesian, the term “taboo” was brought to sociology and anthropology as a special noun to refer to this kind of phenomenon. So, taboo is interpreted as one way in which a society expressed its disagreement on certain kinds of behavior thought to be harmful to its members whether it is for supernatural reasons or it is because such behaves to violate a moral code.


In ancient society, the development level of science and technology was quite low. The primitives had a quite limited understanding and control of their environment. They just couldn’t explain those dangerous and threatening situations, the extraordinary events and confusing phenomena and their success and failure. They thought everything was alive with spirit and language took upon a kind supernatural sense. They regarded language as the source of their misfortune and happiness. Those who did something against this origin would be blessed and benefited. This led to the forbidden use of language and the word-fetishism. Taboo and euphemism are closely related to each other.
