Science - Linguistics
English term or phrase: pig-dog
Context - este necesar un termen diferit de "weaker self" - eventual ceva localizat

Exemple:

"It symbolizes the weaker self that gives in to the temptation of procrastination and inaction. We all have a pig-dog just crying to."

A German doesn't “overcome his weaker self”…he overcomes his “inner pig-dog” (Den inneren Schweinehund überwinden).

Günter the inner pigdog is your weaker self.
