English is a deeply flawed but intensely playful language. It's like the weird kid at the playground who's clearly a mess, but they're always down for whatever.

I took a year in German. It's much prettier than its reputation in pop culture makes it. One of my favourite words is sehnsucht, and I keep trying to get anglophones to steal it.

What does sehnsucht mean?

Tough one to sum up, but the wiki page does a good job. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sehnsucht

Sure wish I was better at explaining things...

Thank you for sharing! This is why I asked rather than googling- I would have looked at a definition and moved on, rather than falling into that rabbit hole. I appreciate you.
