Ok, but you can explain properties of sounds to deaf men, and properties of colors to blind men. You can’t give them a full understanding of what it is like to experience these things, but that doesn’t preclude deaf or blind men from having mental models of the world that take into account those senses. A blind man can still reason about what things a sighted person would be able to conclude based on what they see, likewise a deaf man can reason about what a person who can hear could conclude based on what they could hear. |
