1. λοιπὴ ἀπορία. For the omission of the article before a relative clause (Heindorf suggested the insertion of ἡ after λοιπή) Sauppe quotes Rep. III. 413E φύλαξ αὑτοῦ ὢν ἀγαθὸς καὶ μουσικῆς ἧς ἐμάνθανεν. The ἀπορία was raised by Socrates in 319Dff.

3. διδάσκουσιν. Contrast below 325Bτὰ μὲν ἄλλα διδάσκονται τοὺς υἱεῖς and ibid. τοὺς υἱεῖς διδάσκονται, said of the parents as διδάσκουσιν (in the usual sense of διδάσκονται) is said here and in Meno, 94B. Similarly in Prot. 320Aἐπαίδευε is used where we should expect ἐπαιδεύετο: cf. ἐπαιδεύσατο in Meno, 93D.

ἃ διδασκάλων ἔχεται. See note on 319Eabove.

6. οὐκέτι μῦθον ἀλλὰ λόγον. Gorg. 523A ὃν σὺ μὲν ἡγήσει μῦθον, ὡς ἐγὼ οἶμαι, ἐγὼ δὲ λόγον: ὡς ἀληθῆ γὰπ ὄντα σοι λέξω ἃ μέλλω λέγειν.
