It is a one-sided change of form when the meaning unchanged in a linguistic unit that is whole and simplified. It is a result mat randomictty act on a word or expression by the condition of linguist conventionalism. In the change to choose the representational form, the meaning and construction (if the word or expression were ignored. It is a remnant and unreasonable form in meaning and construction. The representation form is chose for its individuality. So, in sound meaning and grammar, it chooses the sound form, but the meaning and the grammar act through the sound form.The shortening is a regulation for the word and expression in sentence that is too long. It is a self-regulation of the language. It is not only a result that the people lust for save and easy when they use the language, also it is base on the cooperative principle and the hologram of linguistic sign. Both sides in talk use a spot of form as a clew to express a meaning that need a complex form to load originally, for the key point of sentence stand out.The shortening has destroyed the configuration of meaning, is counter-norm. It acquitted in nature shortening obviously. When this differentiation is increase, there are many artificial shortening derive from. The apperception of shortening words and the infection of linguistic system rules, make the shortening lean to regularization. The unreasonableness of shortening turns to bottom from surface layer. Shortening criterion is possibility.The everyday expressions have a characteristic of whole though used. It makes us ignores its inside relation of meaning and configuration, and occurs the separable change between the form and meaning, and created the unreasonable lexeme.
