This paper concerns on the characteristics of language used in the Web searching and seeks to make an exploratory study on the syntax and semantic query problems. The research mainly uses search engine query log analysis method, then compares with the results from Web questionnaire analysis. At last, the authors come to the conclusion on the characteristics of syntax, term category, assistant words, and principal words. The syntax in Web searching is very stable; users rely greatly on assistant words; the natural-language-character of query is obvious; and the query syntax is very simple. Search engines has become an helpful supplement for traditional information retrieval tools; forms unique contents, in which consists mostly entertainment and non-mainstream culture, and which differentiate search engine from traditional information retrieval tools.
