Translation: [Meaning something] that which has equal parts.
Aristotle says[1] that if an account of something compound is rendered which has as many parts as the compound also has -- [a compound] whose definition is rendered -- this account will not be a definition of that [compound]. For in the accounts thus rendered there must be a transference of the names into [a single] name.
