In the Tang Dynasty, people started to build kilns tomake bluish white porcelain in Changnan. Thebluish white porcelain was glittering and had thereputation of artificial jade, so it became famoushome and abroad and was exported to Europe inlarge amount. At that time, Europeans were not able to make porcelain,so porcelain fromChina，especially from Changnan，was warmly welcomed. In Europe，porcelain fromChangnan was luxurious article cherished by everyone, and obtaining even one piece of itwould make people feel very proud. In this way，Europeans used Changnan as the code namefor china (porcelain) and the place of its production，China. Gradually, Europeans forgot theoriginal meaning of Changnan，only remembering it is “china”，namely“China”.

參考翻譯：

唐朝時期，人們就在昌南建造窯坊(kiln),燒制出一種青白瓷(bluish white porcelain)。青白瓷色彩晶瑩，有“人造玉器”的美稱，因而遠近聞名，并大量出口歐洲。當時，歐洲人還不會制造瓷器，因此中國特別是昌南鎮的瓷器很受歡迎。 在歐洲，昌南鎮瓷器是備受珍愛的貴重物品，人們以能獲得一件昌南鎮瓷器為榮。因此，歐洲人就以“昌南”作為瓷器和生產瓷器的“中國”的代稱。久而久之，歐洲人就把昌南的本意忘卻了，只記得它是“瓷器”，即“中國”了。
