zeal: (noun) enthusiasm; ardor; keenness. His zeal for driving fast was stopped by a
telephone pole. zeitgeist: (noun) German, literally “the spirit of the age.” The guy tried to explain
his sexist attitudes as zeitgeist, but he just came off sounding that much more a sexist asshole.
zephyr: (noun) a slight, refreshing wind. We opened the windows to let a zephyr in, but
were surprised when an old Ford came in instead.
