    DefinitionShort: the psychological faculty of understanding, reasoning, thinking, and deciding
    Glosses: mind
    Comments: 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.’

    DefinitionShort: the content of thinking and reasoning
    Glosses: ['thought', 'what is thought', 'opinion']
    Comments: In a number of languages it is simply not possible to find noun-like words for thinking or reasoning and therefore it may be necessary to use a verb equivalent throughout. For example, in {S:04201101700012} one may translate as ‘but Jesus knew what they were thinking.’|It may be difficult in some languages to speak of ‘taking every thought captive’ ({S:04701000500026}), but one can often say ‘to control every thought’ or ‘to make oneself think as one should.’
