So if what Socrates means by invisibility is the first notion: can't be seen with your eyes, then the argument is not any good, harmony is a pretty compelling counterexample.

所以如果苏格拉底说的无形,是第一个意思：，眼睛看不见，这个论证就不好，和声是个很有说服力的反例。

Don't get hung up on what does the English word invisible mean, Let's just ask oursleves what notion of invisibility, if you'll use the word you know, between these three ways, what notion did Socrates' arguement turn on.

I've got to say I think it's no longer right once we interpret invisibility that way, that soul is detectable in just the way not literally just way, but in something similiar to the way that radio waves are detectable.

If some invisible things can be destroyed, and harmony is an example of that, then, by golly, it's going to follow that we can't conclude from the invisibility of the soul that the soul can't be destroyed.

如果有形的东西可以毁灭，和声是这样的一个例子，那么接下来我们就无法得出,灵魂是无形的,无法毁灭的。
