nous, kardia, psyche, kalos/kale Explanation: Which in the Greek alphabet is: íïõò êáñäéá øõ÷ç êáëïò/êáëç NB: You should use use êáëç if "noble" is being applied to something feminine (like a woman or the word øõ÷ç), but you should use êáëïò if "noble" is being applied to something masculine (like a man, or the word íïõò), or if "noble" is being applied to a group of mixed gender (like the three nouns). Also, êáñäéá always meant the physical seat of emotions but not always the anatomical "heart"; some authors associated the kardia with the gut. Liddell-Scott |
