Daodejing One: 9/59
名
可
名
名 míng
the name (名 míng)
that can (可kě)
be named (名 míng)
the first ming in this line
is a noun
the second is a verb
but the author of this text
had never heard of nouns or verbs
could we possibly think of these characters
as nouns and verbs and concepts
all at the same time?
