Zeitgeist is
originally a German expression that means "the spirit of
the age", literally translated as time (Zeit), spirit (Geist)".
In some countries it has a
different meaning; e.g. in the Netherlands Zeitgeist
literally refers to; the mind of the time (tijdsgeest),
and mind is understood as the mental spirit (state of
mind).
The word zeitgeist
describes the intellectual and cultural climate of an
era.
In German, the word has more layers of meaning than
the English translation, including the fact that
Zeitgeist can only be observed for past events.
