This dissertation, from the three perspectives of syntax、semantics and pragmatics, tries to make the multi-angle and comprehensive research on the pronoun‘某’’and’‘某某”Except the introduction and summary, this article is divided into three parts:The first part includes two chapters. The first chapter discusses the combination of "某" and X from the two perspectives of semantics and syntax. On the referential meaning,’’某”can represents reality and unreality,"personal pronoun+surname+某(人)"can be used as the personal pronoun. The second chapter discusses the combination of“某某”and X from the two perspectives of semantics and syntax. On the referential meaning,"某某”can also represents reality and unreality, but can’t used as the personal pronoun.The second part identifies the similarities and differences between the combination of’‘某”and’‘某某’’with X on the foundation of the analysis and comparison. On the referential meaning, the biggest difference is that“某”can used as the personal pronoun, but "某某”can’t; On the construction,”某某”can make an appositive phrase by putting a personal noun in front of it, but the only word can go in front of"某”is the surname.The final part focuses on the research of the pragmatic environment、pragmatic constraints and pragmatic functions when“某”and“某某”show up with different referential meanings. First,”某”and"某某”representing the reality mainly appear in the news language and the legal language; Their pragmatic functions are divided into four points:protect the citizen right of privacy; avoid responsibility; avoid hurt others face; distinguish the function. Secondly,’‘某”and’‘某某”implicit the unreality, always appears in the technology language and the politics language.
