Abstract: "Daoyin" in Chuang-tzuKeyi is the earliest article on"Daoyin"ever known and can be seen as the document source of "Daoyin".This paper makes a systematic analysis of "Daoyin"by using the lexicology theories and methods, and holds that it is quite different from the"Daoyin"in modern Chinese language. In modern Chinese language, "Daoyin"is a noun, meaning a kind of traditional sports medical treatment, while "Daoyin" in Chuang-tzu Keyiis a coordinateverb phrase, meaning two actions, namely "Xuandao" and "Qianyin". based on this understanding, this paper further proposes that people's understanding of "Daoyin" in the Warring States period should be broader, which is obviously different from people's view of "Daoyin" nowadays.
