Zeitgeber

Postby William Hupy » Fri Jan 15, 2016 12:38 pm

Ok, ok, I know a zeit word is already posted...zeitgeist, but I am unable to resist this contribution, especially since I am still studying German, which will be a life long sentence. This is a direct translation of time and the infinitive for to give. Time giver. It is an agent that stimulates the biological clock of an organism, such as light, warmth, or even a work or school schedule for humans.

Nature's own alarm clock, as it were.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
