Nephrite Greek "λίθος νεφριτικός"; "νεφρός λίθος", which means 'kidney stone' and is the Latin and Greek version of the Spanish "piedra de ijada" (the origin of "jade" and "jadeite"). Accordingly, nephrite jade was once believed to be a cure for kidney stones. Besides the terms already mentioned, nephrite has the following synonyms and varieties: "aotea", "axe-stone", "B.C. jade", "beilstein", "kidney stone", "lapis nephriticus", "nephrit", "nephrita", pounamu, "New Zealand greenstone", "New Zealand jade", "spinach jade" (dark grayish green), and "talcum nephriticus". "Tomb jade" or "grave jade" are names given to ancient burial nephrite pieces that have a brown or chalky white texture
Theory of forms own particulars and not to those of other Forms. For example, there is no Form Not-Greek, only "particulars" of Form Otherness that somehow "suppress" Form Greek. Regardless of whether Socrates meant the particulars of Otherness yield Not-Greek, Not-tall, Not-beautiful, etc., the particulars would operate specifically rather than generally, each somehow yielding only one exclusion. Plato had postulated that we know Forms through a remembrance of the soul's past lives and Aristotle's arguments against this treatment of epistemology are compelling. For Plato, particulars somehow do not exist, and, on the face of it, "that which is non-existent cannot be known". See
