#1 Did you know the literal translation for Animal in Chinese is "Thing that moves"01-27-2011, 03:52 PM
动物 = Animal
动 = Move as in 电动车
物 = stuff as in 物品 (the stuff the bus announcements are always telling you to take care of)
Just your random FYI

Same in ancient Greek. Anima - as in Animate and Animal. Anima i think is closely translated to "soul" as well.
