Vorahnung Explanation: A gut-feeling is something you just feel "in your guts" without being able to explain it rationally. So 'Ahnung', 'Vorahnung' or 'ungutes Gefühl' would be good possibilities. Is there no context at all whether it is positive or negative? HTH |

Bauchgefühl Explanation: Hallo Thomas, Bauchgefühl umfasst in etwa einen Teil des gesunden Menschverstandes, Instinkte sowie eine Art Urvertrauen. In Google findest Du über 800 Treffer. Daniel Barenboim sagte einmal, man muss Musik mit dem Kopf, den Herzen und dem Bauch empfinden/verarbeiten. Vielleicht hilft Dir diese Bild, das Bauchgefühl zu verstehen. Es ist das Gefühl, was uns mit unseren prähistorischen Vorfahren verbindet. Viele Grüße Claudia Reference: http://www.spiegel.de/unispiegel/jobundberuf/0,1518,147833,0... |
