The story goes far or less that way:
Everything began when I was pretending to learn “fancy” English language words to increase my expressivity. Then I gave a search and found that article, 45 beautiful untranslatable words that can describe exactly what you are feeling
Then, at some point, I realized that German language had words to describe “complex” situations and emotions and also had the tendency to make composite words that can be used for that purpose, so then I decided making a search and learning some German words for me to be able to express myself better. Here are some of them:
Schadenfreude, Wanderlust, Ohrwurm, Fremdscham, Gemütlichkeit, Sturmfrei, Handschuchneeballwerfer, Backpfeifengesicht, Erbsenzähler, Torschlusspanik, Fernweh, Erklärungsnot, Treppenwitz, Weichei, Schattenparker, Fingerspitzengëfuhl, Spannungsbogen, Vorfreude, Lebenswelt, Weltanschauung, Verschlimmbesserung, Waldeinsamkeit, Sprachegehfühl, Warmduscher, Luftschloss, Allgemeinbildung, Eselsbrücke
The German pejorative terms are awesome, by the way.
I have heard from a quite intelligent philosopher that the languages people should learn for one to do philosophy are Latin and Greek, and that German was a language to speak to gnomes, but thinking well there are cool German words to express emotions, and German language appears to be so technical, so to speak. Germans appear to excel in the technology and engineering fields (e.g cars) that all involve technical stuff and at the same time Germany had many well renowed psychologists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts and philosophers.
Then I thought: What if I capture the sensations that most haunt me which I cannot explain, and then invent a word in German for them, and the same for situations that happen to me constantly to such an extent I realize a pattern on them, but I do not have a word exactly for them?
That is what I did. I picked up some ideas from the above article and the website vowlenu.com, and then began thinking on emotions and situations I could create a German term for them.
I would like to use this opportunity to let you to describe sensations you have that I/We may create a German term for it. Here I go:
1- The sensation of having a smaller genital organ than [REDACTED] and that [REDACTED] may superate oneself in terms of erotic performance but yet females would pretend to hang with you due to other sociobiological factors, but you know that if these sociobiological factors where removed from the game, maybe you would be in disadvantage.
2- The sensation of being a circumstance that is meaningless to you but you are there just for a contingence of life and or achieving something meaningful (e.g picking a bus to go to a party and the wearing feeling of wasting your time there to get where you want when you should teletransport yourself to the party)
3- The wearisome feeling of being comforted from grief while at the same time knowing that adversities tend to shape one’s virtues
4- The incapacity of oneself to set down his guards and delighting the fruits of his works due to one’s knowledge that his delight will end, that things work in a cyclical way, meaning he may have to undergo adversities again, and that when the time the delight ends and one comes back to his griefing situation again one may actually experience more pain than before due to a contrast effect between the delightful situation and the grievous situation
5- The feeling a married person of male sex feels of having already reproduced, and as such, wearing oneself away from all bodily cares one previously had (getting lean, working to the gym, etc) (sometimes people do things for reproducing)
Another thing: Let’s make a list of fancy English words that can be used to describe emotions, psychological terms, philosophical terms, general things in life. Here is my list (let’s increase it):
Serendipity, tactful, listlessness, caprice, whimsical, rogue, rascal, rapscallion, even-handed, farfetched, abnormal, aberrant, horrible, horrendous, horripilant, eerie, spooky, glad, blithe, seethe, soothe, appease, calm, relax, lax, bound, prattle, chatter, idiosyncrasy, quirk, entangle, tangle, entrammel, enmesh, sagacity, wisdom, oaf, dunderheaded, headstrong, asinine, fractious, rantankerous, rambunctious, rambunctious, cantankerous, querulous, conteck, quarreling, facetious, farcical, harlequin, waggish, aby, connive, circumjacence, immarcescible
Also, let’s invent a story together so we can apply fancy words to them. Here I go:
There was a grumpy man who was used to live in the meadows of a kingdom (you continue)
Thanks.
