Abstract:
The humanity-oriented spirit is being reestablished and developed in medical activities,but there are still deviations clearly demonstrated in language expression and communications between doctors and patients.This paper discusses the relationship between medicine and language expression,empirically analyzes the language problems in physician-patient communication including inadequacy of information,rigidness of speech,frankness in speech,the lack of language skills,shortage of non-linguistic information,and the causes of such problems.Finally,the paper proposes that language cultivation should be improved and restressed from the perspectives of both medicine and linguistics.
