in the fission case, there's splitting, there's branching.

在裂变情况下发生分裂出现分支
So neither of them is going to end up being Shelly Kagan.

所以他们最终都不是雪莱·卡根
But in the ordinary humdrum case, here I am, my body.

但在一般情况下这里有我的肉体
Why am I Shelly Kagan?

为什么我是雪莱·卡根
Because the brain in front of you--you can't see it,

因为在你们面前的大脑你们看不见它
but it's in front of you--the brain in front of you

但是确实在你们面前
is the very same brain as the brain

和上周四在你们面前的大脑
that you had in front of you on Thursday.

是同一个大脑
Follow the body, in particular follow the brain.

肉体同一大脑同一人才能同一
So in the ordinary case,

所以在一般情况下

In the special case where there's splitting,

而在发生分裂的特殊情形下
