He thought that taboo is a convention in society.Another notable researcher is Timothy B.Jay. He thought that taboo is a language which is related to society. In China, analysis of taboos can be found in Chen Yuan#8217;s book Sociolinguistic. In the late mid-1980s,some scholars in China proposed to develop Chinese Culture Linguistics. As a result, a series of related books were published. In these books, taboos are unavoidably included. In 1997, another reference book entitled Don#8217;t do it:A Dictionary of the forbidden by Philip Thody was published.In this book, Thody clarified how people used taboos in different ages, in different societies and in everyday life.
