Qi (Pinyin: Qi; Wades Giles: Ch'i). Literally translated to air, breath or gas. But in the context of Chinese philosophy or medicine, Qi is most often translated as "intrinsic energy"or "life force". Most importantly, it means many things depending on the context of it's usage. See http://qi-encyclopedia.com for in-depth research and discussion.
