der Gleichgesinnte, -n
like-minded · like-minded person
Menschen, die ähnliche Ideen, Meinungen oder Ziele haben.
The German word "Gleichgesinnte" is a noun that translates to "like-minded individuals" or "those of the same opinion". It is a compound word made up of "gleich" (equal or same) and "gesinnte" (minded or disposed). The term refers to people who share similar beliefs, values, or interests.
Similar words in German include "Vertrauter" (confidant or close associate), "Genosse" (comrade or fellow), and "Partner" (partner).
Differences:
- Vertrauter typically implies a closer personal relationship, often involving trust and intimacy.
- Genosse often carries a connotation related to political or ideological affiliation.
- Partner is more general and can refer to any partner in a business, relationship, or project.
In contrast, "Gleichgesinnte" specifically emphasizes shared beliefs or opinions rather than the nature of the relationship.
