ABSTRACT
Person deixis is an important component in deixis. The present paper, based on the collection of person deixis used unconventionally as the language material, analyzes from the perspective of pragmatics the unconventional usage of the first person deixis through six aspects. They are the first person conventional and unconventional usage, the first person singular used as plural, the first person plural used as singular, plural used as the second person singular, plural used as the second person plural, first person referred to the third person. The conclusion based on relevant examples shows that first person deixis in the specific usage of the process is by no means simple, and it will deviate from the conventional usage because of the specific context, hence a good understanding of an implied meaning of the speaker requires the first person unconventional usage related to the context and politeness principle.
Key words: First-Person Deixis, conventional usage; Unconventional Usage

1.1 Background information
Deixis is an important topic of pragmatics study and one of the earliest research subjects. It has become a vital part of the pragmatics. The relationship between the discourse and context just can be reflected in the structure of language through the deixis. The word deixis comes from a Greek word meaning “pointing or indicating”. The traditional view of linguistics believes that pragmatics studies the usage of language under the context condition. Besides, deictic phenomenon can be considered as the most obvious and the most direct language reflection between language and context. Five categories of deixis are classified by Levinson, namely person deixis(like “I”)，time deixis(like “tomorrow”), place deixis(like “here”), discourse dexis(like “this chapter”), and social deixis (like “您” in Chinese) Among the five categories of deixis, Person deixis is link to people or things involved in discourse with the speaker and the listener or a third party through public or implied personal pronoun to show the relationship between each other.
