הָאוֹמֵר, תְּרוּמַת הַכְּרִי זֶה בְּתוֹכוֹ, וּמַעַשְׂרוֹתָיו בְּתוֹכוֹ, תְּרוּמַת מַעֲשֵׂר זֶה בְּתוֹכוֹ, רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר, קָרָא שֵׁם. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, עַד שֶׁיֹּאמַר בִּצְפוֹנוֹ אוֹ בִדְרוֹמוֹ. רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר חִסְמָא אוֹמֵר, הָאוֹמֵר, תְּרוּמַת הַכְּרִי מִמֶּנּוּ עָלָיו, קָרָא שֵׁם. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, הָאוֹמֵר, עִשּׂוּר מַעֲשֵׂר זֶה עָשׂוּי תְּרוּמַת מַעֲשֵׂר עָלָיו, קָרָא שֵׁם:

If one says: “The Terumah of this pile is within it,” or, “its tithes are within it,” or, “the Terumat Ma'aser [a portion of the tithes that are given to the priest] is within it,” Rabbi Shimon says: he has [thereby] designated it [as Terumah, tithes, or Terumat Ma'aser]. But the Sages say: not unless he said, “It is in the north or south of it.” Rabbi Elazar Chisma says: if one says, “The Terumah of this pile is taken from it for it,” he has [thereby] designated it. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov says: if one says, “The tenth part of this tithe is made into Terumat Ma'aser for it,” he has [thereby] designated it.

Tosefta Terumot

One who says, "The terumah for this pile [of produce] is in the north," then [the result would be that] the entire half nearest the north is rendered a medummah (a forbidden mixture of terumah and chullin), the words of Rebbi. But the Sages say, [what he can do instead] is arrange the pile in the form of the letter "chi" (similar to an X, to minimize contact between terumah and chullin). Rabban Shimon ben Gamaliel says, he can take the terumah from the northernmost [part].
