The non concordant breath

I made no attempt to translate רוּחַ as a single English word. It's meaning is too wide to contain. What would it look like if one did make the attempt, I wonder. So here are the uses that might have occurred if one did. This will test if I made consistent choices too - some of which may be rude.

The long and short of it is that mostly I used spirit but sometimes breath and sometimes wind (for the rude bits). (And one 'snort'!) I note places where almost any of the first three would fit.

יט וְהִנֵּה רוּחַ גְּדוֹלָה בָּאָה מֵעֵבֶר הַמִּדְבָּר וַיִּגַּע בְּאַרְבַּע פִּנּוֹת הַבַּיִת וַיִּפֹּל עַל הַנְּעָרִים וַיָּמוּתוּ וָאִמָּלְטָה רַק אֲנִי לְבַדִּי לְהַגִּיד לָךְ	1.19	and behold a great wind came from the region of the wilderness and touched the four corners of the house and it fell on the lads and killed them and there escaped but I only I to tell you
