Get your pussy up get your money up. Youāre gorgeous btw
get my pussy up,,,,,,, get my money up,,,,,,,,,
Being obsessed with your own ocs is so so good for you i seriously can't recommend it enough
The only downside is that you have to do Everything around here
kicking my feet and giggling like a schoolgirl in love to myself while muttering "i'm going to kill you. i'm going to fucking kill you"
Made the mistake of buying a bag of spinach as a person who lives alone so now every single meal I eat for the next 2 weeks is gonna about this damn spinach. We are on 24/7 spinach lockdown. Last time this happened, I made 3 salads and a spinach curry and spinach pasta and STILL half the bag turned to green rot in the fridge. My conception of "what meals require spinach" is rapidly expanding into "what meals COULD conceivably include spinach." I am considering recipes never before seen outside the realms of vegan mommy blogs. By day 10 I anticipate I will probably just do a Land Before Time and take the rest of that shit raw

Honestly, as a German I can not quite understand the obsession of the English speaking world with the question whether a word exists or not. If you have to express something for which there is no word, you have to make a new one, preferably by combining well-known words, and in the very same moment it starts to exist. Agree?
Deutsche Freunde, could you please create for me a word for the extreme depression I feel when I bend down to pick up a piece of litter and discover two more pieces of litter?

This is a german compound on the spot master class and I am LIVING
#my german is still too basic for this but I desperately want a compound word for how much these compound words piss me off

Monsterwortbildungsunfähigkeitsangstverzweiflungsrückzugsecke
Monster=monster // wort=word // bildung(s)=formation
unfähigkeit (s)=incabability // angst=anxiety
verzweiflung(s)=desperation // rückzug(s)=retreat // ecke=corner
=the corner in which you retreat when you“re desperate because of your fear when being unable to form monster words
*eye twitch*
But what I want to see now is two germans arguing over the construction of one of these monster words.
@shiplocks-of-love I donāt think that will happen. The words make perfect sense. I think if German is your mother tongue you get a feeling for combining words, like aĀ
Monsterwortbildungsgespür
Monster = monsterĀ
Wort = wordĀ
Bildung(s) = formation
Gespür = intuition

Sprachirrgartenbelustigungsbeitrag
die Sprache = language
⢠irren = to become lost (also: to err, to be mistaken; to wander, to stray)
⢠der Garten = garden
der Irrgarten = maze, knot garden
⢠be- = prefix with a variety of functions: ¹as part of a compound word, it denotes a processing or change of state; ²as part of a compound word, it denotes a touch; ³as part of a compound word, it denotes a more intensive preoccupation with or thematization of something; ā“it forms from a noun an adjective with a pseudo-participle form because the corresponding verb does not exist; āµas a prefix, it forms aĀ transitiveĀ verb from a previously intransitive verb; ā¶as a prefix of a verb, it shifts the focus and thus changes the sentence structure
⢠lustig = funny
⢠-ung = suffix turning an adjective/adverb into a noun
die Belustigung = amusement, entertainment, merriment
der Beitrag = contribution, article in a newspaper or magazine, posting on social media, input to a discussion
Bloody love this language <3<3<3
The thing is, since in German you have to decline/conjugate many words in relation to the noun they are refering to those monster words actually serve a purpose of making the language simpler. A common example is a (as in any) red wine (ein roter Wein) as compaired to the compound a red wine (ein Rotwein). If rot is an adjective it has to be conjugated: der rote Wein - des roten Weins - die roten Weine - and many more. But it if rot is part of the noun you only have to decline Wein: der Rotwein - des Rotweins - die Rotweine. So, die Verzweiflung über die Vermüllung der Umwelt is way longer than Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung and you would have to know three grammatical genders and the wordsā respective declinations. Whereas for Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung you only need to know that Verzweiflung is grammatically feminine (die) and its deklinations.
Ok, now I want to see Germans playing Scrabble

Youāre Welcome!
In Dutch we also have compounds without spaces, leading to words like āproductkwaliteitsbeoordelingā (product quality assessment) but even to me this chain is still kinda fascinating because I had never really considered the angle that in German, compounds leave you with fewer word endings to decline
In modern Dutch we just kinda lost* most declensions, so the most youāll have to inflect an adjective with is an extra -e, and our nouns donāt really change outside of their one singular and plural forms (weāre like this fucked up middle ground between German and English). Unlike the German examples it wouldnāt really make a big difference (simplicity-of-grammar-wise) if I said āinbeeldingsvermogenstekortā vs ātekort aan inbeeldingsvermogenā (lack of imagination); weād be more inclined to say the latter
* they mostly do remain in old, fixed phrases like the genitive in āmijns inziensā (IMO) or ā⦠des doodsā (⦠of death)
Anyway enjoy:
inbeeldingsvermogenstekort
- beeld: image
- inbeelden: to imagine
- -ing: -ing
- -s: remnant of genitive that sometimes shows up in compounds
- mogen: may (think French pouvoir)
- vermogen: capacity, power (think French pouvoir)
- inbeeldingsvermogen: imagination (power/capacity to imagine)
- te: too
- kort: short
- tekort: shortage, deficit, lack

The best part of that video is that the owner found the ORIGINAL plush later on the beach and took another video with it after their grandmother stitched it back up
I love the death grip after the toy was fixed up. Lessons were learned. Try to steal it this time you fucking bird. I dare you.
