The word Mamihlapinatapai (sometimes spelled mamihlapinatapei) is derived from the Yaghan language of Tierra del Fuego, listed in The Guinness Book of World Records as the "most succinct word", and is considered (for example by Austrian playwright Clemens Berger) one of the hardest words to translate.[1] It allegedly refers to "a look shared by two people, each wishing that the other will offer something that they both desire but are unwilling to suggest or offer themselves."[2] A slightly different interpretation of the meaning also exists: "It is that look across the table when two people are sharing an unspoken but private moment. When each knows the other understands and is in agreement with what is being expressed. An expressive and meaningful silence."

My favourite word in German might be aufgegessen. It's a very euphonic word. I also like Semmelknoedel, but I think that's bayerisch not german. Also based on the selection of those two words, I think I may be hungry.

My favourite word in spanish is relámpago if you really roll the R, it sounds like the crack of thunder that comes before.

sonder

n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk.

This isn't a "word" so much as it is a coinage for something people wanted a word for. It's the linguistic equivalent of a collectible coin. People don't actually use this in conversation beyond "you know what that is called...." If it isn't really in circulation, it isn't a word, not in the same way "wanderlust" is a word.

agreed. Obscure words can be really nice at times (largely because many of them are short -- and four and five letter words are just the most beautiful gifts from eld imo) but words like "sonder" are retarded. It's like that wayne's world scene:

It's a word if you want to call a word anything with a definition given anywhere. Here's my favorite word:

pedantogatry:

1. being a petty homosexual (in the manner of this poster.)
2. Carefully sucking every bit of shit out of a male sphincter.

I tend to think of genuine words as something you could use in a conversation with a native speaker and reasonably expect them to understand it, or that some specialized community uses among themselves (like chemists use chemical terms.) Can you put "sonder" into a sentence that somebody else would understand without you just having had a conversation about what "sonder" means?

it's an absolute shit tier word because it sounds brutal and, as you pointed out, in its verb form refers to doing something brutal.

and yet, the wort itself refers to something as delicate as a butterfly.
this total disconnect between the sound of the word, the associated verb and the thing it actually refers to bothers me to no end.

Sarkany, the Hungarian word for Dragon. It fascinates me because in Hungarian mythology, dragons were never fire-breathing lizards, but were in fact multi-headed horse-riding manifestations of a hero's flaws. Why that came to be translated as Dragon, I don't know.

Masks. Just say it a few times 'masks, masks, masks.' It's so much fun to play with.

Architect

My best friend in the second grade said that it was what he wanted to be when he grew up. I didn't know what the fuck it meant but I thought it was goddamn beautiful so I said I wanted to be an architect as well. When my mom told me that it was someone who "built buildings and houses", I thought it meant carpenter or some shit.
