Mein Lieblingswort auf Deutsch

A2.2 is really fun! I have many reasons to back up my claim :)
Firstly, by the time one reaches this level, he/she can understand what the teacher is saying better than before. Secondly, one can make sense out of text written in books without using a translator and last but not the least, because, you learn advanced grammar with lots of new words.

Our assignment for the day was to write our favourite German word and also mention as to why we find that word so good. All my classmates came up with beautiful words from this very beautiful and rythmic language.

However, my favourite German word isn’t one of the common words. My Favourite German word is “Schadenfreude“ which is a word to refer to a feeling where someone gets a malicious joy out of someone’s misery or misfortune.

I like this word because the other 3 languages that I speak do not have any proper word to define this very common feeling. This is the most complete word in its meaning and it represent a feeling that we all feel but never admit.

Needless to say, TEACHER SHOCKED – I ROCKED!
