"Aryans" are Proto-Indo-Europeans.
But under Nazi-leadership the term "Aryan" was used to describe people of pure German decent.

To elaborate on what he said, the Nazi state never actually created a meaningful classification of any of it's terms.

The Nuremberg laws define a Jew as anyone who had three or four Jewish grandparents who practiced the religion of Judaism.

So, for example, Karl Marx would pass on Jewish status to his children, but his grandchildren would be certified Aryans.
