回答:如果埃庇米尼得斯知道至少一个克里岛人(除了他以外)不说谎,那么他的诗就是一个谎言(因为他坚称所有克里岛人说谎),即使这首诗的作者是一个说谎者的事实也是真的。
ANSWER: If Epimenides knew of at least one Cretan (other than himself) who is not a liar, his statement is a lie (because he asserts all) even though it correctly describes the speaker as a liar.
这就意味着所有的克里岛人都是诚实的人,那么埃庇米尼得斯所言就是实话。
This means all Cretans are truthful, then Epimenides' statement is the truth.
如果埃庇米尼得斯是一个克里岛人,并且是一个说谎者的话,那么他的诗中所说的“克里岛的人,人人都说谎”就是一个谎话。
If Epimenides is a Cretan and a liar, then his statement, "the Cretans, always liars" is a lie.
