Declination of the Greek name "Hermes' combines feminine and masculine endings. It seems not accidental since Hermes was a hermaphrodite. The grammar is the embodiment of mythology, or even the god himself The only thing necessary to understand the name of Hermes is its declination. Hence the reference to mythology, the reference to Hermes himself, is not needed here. Can we say that Greek logos was mere language of description of reality? It was not a set of labels attachable to things. Logos was rather self-sufficient, it had its own wisdom --wisdom present in its texture. The status of language becomes even more enigmatic when we enter the world of Heraclitus.
