Saudade in the words of Portuguese writer Manuel de Melo: "a pleasure you suffer, an ailment you enjoy" is one of various emotions that we do not have specific words to name in the English language. Source: http://goo.gl/SylXic
INTROSPECT:
Are emotions limited to specific cultures?
Is there one particular emotion that you feel or know is peculiar to the culture that you claim? Are you certain no other cultures claim anything similar?
Do you ever feel the inexplicable urge to push people away, even close friends who you really like? There is a word for that and it is not in English: Mauerbauertraurigkeit.
It sounds Teutonic, does that mean speakers of languages other than German or Scandinavian languages cannot feel this?
Is there any possible way language is private?
If it is public does it mean we can all claim it and in a way own it?
Do you claim a second or third language as your own?
What does this say about your initial nationality? Does it take from it? Does it add to it? Does it matter?
