Abstract
The reason for word to contain several meanings is that mankind increases one meaning in the speech form of some single meaning words.As a result the words with two meanings,then again increase one meaning in the speech form of some two meanings words,as a result make the three meanings words,etc.It is the person's behavior superficially to increase meaning,but it in reality reflects the gravitation of one internal meaning for the outside meaning.In a word with several meanings,the new meaning ushered in directly or indirectly by the original meaning.The original meaning could not produce new meaning.In ancient Chinese language,all new meanings of several meanings words were ushered in by original meanings.
