Question 11

Yesterday I went to the Lycaeum, Kriton, and I found Euthydemos and Dionysodoros conversing with many others.

Answer 11

ἦλθον χθὲς εἰς τὸ Λύκειον, ὦ Κρίτων, καὶ κατέλαβον Εὐθύδημόν τε καὶ Διονυσόδωρον διαλεγομένους μετ’ ἄλλων πολλῶν.

Question 12

And you know that both these men have a good reputation, turning men to philosophy.

Answer 12

καὶ οἶσθα σύ γε ἀμφοτέρους τοὺς ἄνδρας, ὅτι καλὴν δόξαν ἔχουσι, προτρέποντες εἰς φιλοσοφίαν τοὺς ἀνθρώπους.

Question 13

Therefore, wanting to hear their arguments …

Answer 13

ἐγὼ οὖν τοὺς ἐκείνων λόγους ἀκούειν βουλόμενος, …

Question 14

I said: “Do you Dionysodoros, have a reputation for turning people to philosophy and virtue or not?”

Answer 14

“ὑμεῖς ἄρα,” ἦν δ’ ἐγώ, “ὦ Διονυσόδωρε, δόξαν ἔχετε ὅτι προτρέπετε τοὺς ἀνθρώπους εἰς φιλοσοφίαν καὶ ἀρετὴν ἢ οὔ;”

Question 15

“We certainly seem to, Socrates,” he said.

Answer 15

“δοκοῦνέν γε δή, ὦ Σώκρατες,” ἦ δ’ ὅς.

Question 16

“So be it,” I said.

Answer 16

“εἶεν,” ἦν δ’ ἐγώ.

Question 17

“Then you (pl.) must turn this (here) young man to philosophy and virtue.”

Answer 17

“δεῖ οὖν ὑμᾶς προτρέπειν τουτονὶ τὸν νεανίσκον εἰς φιλοσοφίαν καὶ ἀρετἠν.”

Question 18

“They call him Kleinias.”

Answer 18

“καλοῦσι δ’ αὐτὸν Κλεινίαν.”

Question 19

“He is young.”

Answer 19

“ἔστι δὲ νέος.”

Question 20

“But why don’t you question the young man closely, talking here in front of us?”

Answer 20

“ἀλλὰ διὰ τί οὐκ ἐξετάζετε τὸν νεανίσκον, διαλεγόμενοι ἔνθαδε ἐναντίον ἡμῶν.”

Question 21

Euthydemos immediately answered boldly:

Answer 21

ὁ δὲ Εὐθύδμος εὐθὺς ἀνδρείως ἀπεκρίνατο·

Question 22

“We are certainly willing to talk here, Socrates.”

Answer 22

“βουλόμεθα δὴ ἐνθάδε διαλέγεσθαι, ὦ Σώκρατες.”

Question 23

“But the young man must answer.”

Answer 23

“ἀλλὰ δεῖ τὸν νεανίσκον ἀποκρίνεσθαι.”

Question 24

“But,” I said, “the fact is that Kleinias enjoys answering.”

Answer 24

“ἀλλὰ μὲν δῆ,” ἔφην ἐγώ, “ὅ γε Κλεινίας ἥδεται ἀποκρινόμενος.”

Question 25

“For his friends often go to him, asking questions and discussing, ...

Answer 25

“πολλάκις γὰρ πρὸς ἀυτὸν προσέρχονται οἱ φίλοι ἐρωτῶντες καὶ διαλεγόμενοι, ...

Question 26

... and they always question him closely while he is speaking and answering.”

Answer 26

“... ἀεὶ δὲ λέγοντα αὐτὸν καὶ ἀποκρινόμενον ἐξετάζουσιν.”

Question 27

And Euthydemos said: “Listen then, Kleinias, and answer when you have listened.”

Answer 27

καὶ ὁ Εὐθύδημος, “ἄκουε οὖν, ὦ Κλεινία,” ἦ δ’ ὅς, “ἀκούσας δέ, ἀποκρίνου.”

Question 28

Kleinias said: “I will do this and answer.”

Answer 28

ὁ δὲ Κλεινίας, “ποιήσω τοῦτο,” ἦ δ’ ὅς, “καὶ ἀποκρινοῦμαι.”

Question 29

“For I enjoy answering.”

Answer 29

“ἥδομαι γὰρ ἔγωγε ἀποκρινόμενος.”

Question 30

“Speak then, Euthydemos, and question me.”

Answer 30

“λέγε οὖν, ὦ Εὐθύδημε, καὶ ἐξετάζε.”

Question 31

“For it is by speaking and questioning that a sophist turns his students to virtue.”

Answer 31

“λέγων γὰρ δήπου καὶ ἐξετάζων ὁ σοφιστὴς προστρέπει τοὺς μαθητὰς εἰς ἀρετήν.”

Question 32

And Euthydemos said: “Tell me then, which people learn, the clever or the ignorant?”

Answer 32

καὶ ὁ Εὐθύδημος “εἰπὲ οὖν,” ἔφη, “πότεροι εἰσιν οἱ μανθάνοντες, οἱ σοφοὶ ἢ οἱ ἀμαθεῖς;”

Question 33

And the young man—for it really was a big question—was a loss.

Answer 33

καὶ ὁ νεανίσκος—μέγα γὰρ ἔτυχεν ὂν τὸ ἐρώτημα—ἠπόρησεν.

Question 34

And being at a loss he looked at me and blushed.

Answer 34

ἀπορήσας δ’ ἔβλεπεν εἰς ἐμέ, καὶ ἡρυθρίασεν.

Question 35

I, seeing him blush, said: “Don’t worry, and don’t be afraid, but answer boldly.”

Answer 35

ἐγὼ δ’ ἐρυθριῶντα αὐτὸν ὀρῶν “μὴ φρόντιζε,” ἔφην, “μηδὲ φόβοῦ, ἀλλ’ ἀνδρείως ἀποκρίνου.”

Question 36

And at this moment Dionysodoros laughed and with a laugh said:

Answer 36

καὶ ἐν τούτῳ ὁ Διονυσόδωρος ἐγέλασεν, γελάσας δέ, ...

Question 37

“Indeed I know very well that Euthydemos will defeat him in discussion.”

Answer 37

“καὶ μήν,” ἦ δ’ ὅς, “εὖ οἶδ’ ὅτι Εὐθύδημος αὐτὸν νικήσει λέγων.”

Question 38

I did not answer.

Answer 38

καὶ ἐγὼ οὐκ ἀπεκρινάμην.

Question 39

For while Dionysodoros was saying this, Kleinias happened to answer that the people who learn are the clever people.

Answer 39

ὁ γὰρ Κλεινίας, ἕως ταῦτα ἔλεγεν ὁ Διονυσόδωρος, ἀποκρινάμενος ἔτυχεν ὅτι οἱ σοφοί εἰσιν οἱ μανθάνοντες.
