I need to find out when the word for "mind" (Latin: mens, Sanskrit: manas) disappeared from the French language and some other European languages.

I call the mind the last taboo of rationalist society.

@mjambon In English, it is used more as a verb now:

Ca m'est egal = I don't mind

@SteelFolk the origin of "mind" as a verb is interesting: etymonline.com/search?q=to%20mind
