Ye Laishi (Chinese: 叶籁士; 21 May 1911 – 2 February 1994), born Bao Shuyuan (Chinese: 包叔元), was a Chinese linguist, publisher, Esperanto activist, and language reformer from Wu County, Jiangsu. He played an important role in China's language reform movement. He became involved in the Latinxua Sin Wenz movement at an early age and later became one of the principal organizers of language reform in the People's Republic of China, including the simplification of Chinese characters, the promotion of Standard Chinese, and the formulation and implementation of Pinyin. He served as deputy secretary of the Party Leadership Group and executive vice director of the Chinese Script Reform Committee. He was also an important advocate and leader of the Chinese Esperanto movement.
