79 经上:
名,达、类、私
经说上:
名:物,达也。有实必待之名1也。命之马,类也。若实也者,必以是名也。命之臧,私也。是名也止于是实也。声出口,俱有名,若姓字2洒。
Canon I:
Ming (name). Unrestricted; classifying; private.
Exposition of Canon I:...:
'Thing' is 'unrestricted' - any object necessarily requires this name. Naming something 'horse' is 'classifying' - for 'like the object' we necessarily use this name. Naming someone 'Jack' is 'private' - this name stays confined in this object. The sounds which issue from the mouth all have the name. For example, surname and style-name.

1. 之名 : Originally read: "文多".
2. 字 : Originally read: "宇". Corrected by 孙诒让《墨子闲诂》
