History

Answer

Hi,

In the allegory of the cave Plato tries to tell us that human can think, speak and do a lot of other things with no awareness of  true realm of these forms.

Explanation

In the allegory of the cave the prisoners can only see and hear shadows and echoes produced by objects which are invisible to them. In this case, they can mistake appearance for reality. This is to mean they will take the shadows to be real not knowing real causes of those shadows. The meaning is that terms used in our language are not names of physical objects that we see but names of things we can not see, but only grasp with our minds.

Hope this helps!

How was the battle at Normandy a turning point in World War II?
Semenov [28]

The battle of Normandy was one of the greatest victories for the Allies. At the start of July 1944, hundreds of thousands of troops swept the Germans at Normandy and kept pushing. They liberated Paris in just about a couple of months at the end of August 1944. Germans would drastically lose control of Europe and surrendered about a year later in 1945.
