mind

The Greek that is typically translated as «mind» in English is translated in Warao as obojona, a term that «includes the concepts of consciousness, will, attitude, attention and a few other miscellaneous notions.» (Source: Henry Osborn in The Bible Translator 1969, p. 74ff. )

In Elhomwe it is often translated as «heart,» «because all thoughts come from heart in Elhomwe thought.» (Source: project-specific translation notes in Paratext)
