Semantic entry: 26.14

Semantic domains: Psychological Faculties

Definition: the psychological faculty of understanding, reasoning, thinking, and deciding

Notes: In some languages there is no noun such as English mind, and therefore one must use a verb expression meaning ‘to think,’ ‘to reason,’ or ‘to understand,’ depending upon the particular context. In some languages the closest equivalent of ‘mind’ may be a figurative extension of a term meaning ‘head,’ but more often than not, thinking is regarded as being in some other part of the body, for example, ‘heart’ or ‘liver.’
