I don't know why, but I've always liked that word. Hardly ever get to use it.

Gotta hand it to the Germans.

They know how to take a confusing mental state concept and wrap it into a convenient single word.

Another word we owe them great credit for is

Zeitgeist (German pronunciation: [ˈtsaɪtɡaɪst] (

listen)) is "the spirit of the times" or "the spirit of the age." [1] Zeitgeist is the general cultural, intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and/or political climate within a nation or even specific groups, along with the general ambience, morals, sociocultural direction or mood of an era.

The term zeitgeist is from German Zeit- 'time' (cognate with English tide and "time") and Geist- 'spirit' (cognate with English ghost, without being really translatable into English - this is why the German term is used).

source

Given the turbulant history the Germans had thanks first to the reformation, and then to its unification, and on to its passing affection for NAZIism, one can understand why they were the people to coin such a term to describe a collective consciousness.

This word is particularly interesting because it stands as a testament against the delusion that everything that matters has to do with INDIVIDUAL states of mind.

It must be a particualarly annoying concept to Randians, for example.

After all the more insane among that ilk do not believe that the concept of SOCIETY ITSELF is really describing anything real.

So to imagine that a society (that doesn't even exist) can also have a ZEITGEIST must be particularly confusing for those obviously confused people.
