Geist
For other meanings of Geist, see Geist (disambiguation) page. Geist is a German word that does not translate very well into English. It is usually translated as mindspirit, or even ghost but can also be associated with drive or motivation. Some English translators resort to using "spirit-mind" to help convey the meaning of the term. Closer approximations include the Greek word πνεύμα and the Latin animus and anima (all quite very similar in meaning).
