Detailed explanation-1: -Plato believed that there are 2 worlds: Our World (Material World) and the Real World. Our world is constantly changing and we rely on our senses to understand what is going on. Whereas the real world is eternal and unchanging and based on ideas and not senses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Take, for example, the concept dog. Plato would say that each particular dog that we encounter in the visible world participates in the Form of dog; there are many particular dogs, but there is only one Form of dog.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plato believed that there exists an immaterial Universe of ‘forms’, perfect aspects of everyday things such as a table, bird, and ideas/emotions, joy, action, etc. The objects and ideas in our material world are ‘shadows’ of the forms (see Plato’s Allegory of the Cave).
Detailed explanation-4: -For Aristotle, forms do not exist independently of things-every form is the form of some thing. A “substantial” form is a kind that is attributed to a thing, without which that thing would be of a different kind or would cease to exist altogether.
