Journal of Asian Restudy 2021 Fall
Asian culture has played a very important role in the human history, and had made great contribution to the evolution of the human civilization. However, there are many people who still have much misunderstanding about Asian culture, or simply don’t take it as important as it should be, since the power of advanced technology has convinced many people of the leading position of the science-based western culture. The Asian culture had its glorious periods thousands years and centuries ago, but had been in its downturn for quite a while now. Isn’t it the time to re-study it, and let its beauty shine again to the world?

functioned as logos to represent some ideas, which would make it as
somewhat like the hieroglyphic language? Most of the linguistic
literature seems having tried to stay away from this topic. When an
infant utters a sound, it expresses its emotions, or desire for
something, or protest against some action, may accompanied with
facial expressions and body moves, such as pointing or looking at
something. Nevertheless, we could barely hear enough vivid or
distinct sounds from a baby to express complex meanings before
they started to learn the already established language. It could be
reasonably concluded that it is not likely for a pure sound system to
be developed as an original and sophisticated language that could
fully satisfy the communication for what human need in their more
and more complex civilized life style. Instead, the phonetic symbol
system should be developed on a pictographic or logographic symbol
system, and the latter two are the ones contains the meanings to
facilitate the communication and in return propel the neurotic
development of human brain and coordination of the tongue muscle
for creating a system of complex sounds, and to finally make the
proper connection between the sounds and the symbols, because
normally it should be people who use the pictorial symbols to indicate
things to their partners while they struggled to voice out to help the
expression. Just like a person who has suddenly got lost in a
primitive people’s world, would draw pictures or mimic the voice of
animals or make some gestures in order to cross his ideas through to
the other side. The same thing was to the ancient people before they
develop a sophisticate language. They could find the images of
things everywhere in the living environment and drew the pictures,
but they couldn’t imitate all the sounds of birds or the animals’
language, if they had learned a few of them, to express their own
ideas, because of the difficulty to interpret them all, also because of
