俱舍論疏 5.256

5.256

論「語顯名過應例如生」，前難語生名，復准難語顯名也。生謂名由聲生，顯謂名先有體但由語顯。已上破有部離語有名，自下破離語有文。

On the Śāstra's statement: "The faults regarding speech manifesting name should be analogized to its generation": Having earlier refuted that speech produces name, he now analogizes this to refute that speech manifests name. 'Generation' means the name is produced by sound; 'manifestation' means the name's substance previously existed and is merely revealed by speech. The above refutes the Sarvāstivādin view that there is a name separate from speech; below refutes that there are phonemes separate from speech.
