What are jinns called in English?

Jinns are often called genies in English.

However, it's important to note that "genie" is a more colloquial and often simplified term that originated from the popularized concept of a genie granting wishes, which is not necessarily the same as the complex concept of jinns in Islamic tradition.

Other terms used for jinns in English include:

* Jinn (the direct transliteration)

* Demon

* Spirit

The best term to use depends on the context and the specific aspect of jinn you are referring to.
