Abstract: As a kind of embodied cognition, motor skill cognition is undergoing a body transformation, which is a criticism of and supplement to traditional cognition. The affordance theory is the basic of embodied cognition, which may help to overcome the limits of the analyst philosophy in its perception-action fragmentation. Furthermore, the theory draws on the fact that the action language precedes the verbal language to interpret the fundamental reasons why a language originated, which may help to provide new concepts about motor skill cognition. The affordance theory can help to unlock the body's “black box” of motor skill to give theoretical support for cognitive embodiment turning, and it emphasizes situational mastery and bodily sensations, which may provide guidance for motor skill cognition.

Key words: motor skill cognition, affordance, perception-action, natural language
