Résumé anglais Sounds and names Ever since Cratylos, Western authors have regularly reverted to the myth of sense-containing sound. Such a belief is not to be found within Chinese linguistical/poetical theory. A Chinese Cratylos, working along different lines, would have the names reflect functional realities, and would organize them in significant correlative structures. The historical process of tone-naming, fairly well known, is an apt example thereof.
