and I want to spell that out for you.

下面我来详细说明
But before we get to my spelling it out for you,

在这之前
let me just give it a few more of the characteristics

我先讲一些僭主制的特点
that it comes to have by classical times in the minds of the Greeks.

这些是古典主义时期希腊人的想法
It is, as I say, despotically exercised.

正如我所说的僭主制就是专政
It is not legitimate and one aspect of its not being legitimate

它不是合法的其中一点是
is that it is not responsible.

僭主不需要负责
A tyrannos does not have to explain himself

一位僭主不需要对他的所作所为进行解释
and nobody would dare insist that he do.

并且也没有人胆敢要求他这么做
He need not consult anybody if he doesn't want to.

如果他不想他不用与人商量
He doesn't need to have the approval of anybody.

他无需征求任何人的同意
All of that makes him illegitimate.

所有这些都说明僭主制是非法的
