Shadenfreude - roughly meaning 'a wicked satisfaction at the misfortune of others' (especially when they are generally seen as deserving of this misfortune).

[Livia]

Bumsen.

[Z]

A few in German...

ein Funkloch - an area where you get no reception or signal for electronic devices, normally out in the countryside, we don't really have a definitive term for that in English so I like that it exists in German... plus it sounds so German as well :D

Kummerspeck - literally a word to describe the weight you put on if you comfort eat :joker: means 'grief bacon'... trust the Germans

Fremdschämen - to be embarrassed for someone else.

[Jake.]

If I get this job, you have opportunities to learn different languages and travel, if so I'd love to learn German to visit the offices over there!

[Chuck]

Saudade is my favourite word in Portuguese, unfortunately it has no translation in English. It's the feeling you have when you miss something or someone when you sort of know that what/who you're missing is never coming back. It's very romantic and sad.

[Z]

So like if someone has died or something?

[Cherry Christmas]

Merde.

[Chuck]

So like if someone has died or something?

or if you broke up with a gf but you really wanted the relationship to have worked out. It's similar to nostalgia but more romantic.
