答：若依有部，即質化語能生名等，是語業性。若離質化，依《婆沙》意而有兩釋：一云，化語性是語業，由心發故，雖離質化無執受生，然屬有情非外器攝；故風輪等外器音聲與此相違，不能詮也，絃管等聲類亦如是，亦無詮表。有歌曲等，似名非真，許是語聲，由風氣等所引發故；雖名語聲，仍外器攝，無名非業，不成就故。二云，雖是能詮然無實名，所有詮表似名非實，如鏡中火似火非真，性亦非業。又不成就，以無執受大種生故，諸論據似說有情名，依即質化說成化語。

Answer: If according to the Sarvāstivāda, transformed speech that conforms to the physical base can produce names and so forth, and is of the nature of speech action. If it is a transformation separated from the physical base, there are two explanations according to the intention of the Mahāvibhāṣā: The first says that the nature of transformed speech is speech action because it is produced by the mind. Although a transformation separated from the physical base is born of non-appropriated [elements], it nevertheless belongs to sentient beings and is not subsumed under the external receptacle. Therefore, sounds of the external receptacle, such as wind-wheels, contradict this and cannot designate; sounds of strings and pipes are also like this and likewise have no designation. Some songs and the like resemble names but are not genuine, yet are admitted to be speech sounds because they are induced by wind and breath; although they are called speech sounds, they are still subsumed under the external receptacle, lack names, and are not action, because they are not acquired. The second says: although it is designative, it has no real names; whatever designation it has resembles names but is not real, just as fire in a mirror resembles fire but is not real, and its nature is also not action. Moreover, it is not acquired, because it is produced from non-appropriated primary elements. Treatises speak of the name of a sentient being based on the resemblance, and speak of the establishment of transformed speech based on transformations conforming to the physical base.
