In English it's how you call it either astronaut or cosmonaut, but depending on context.

>Can't figure one out

Schadenfreude probably.

For english maybe 'hypocrit'. We have a translation but it's rarely used.

>>66961642
Lagom means "just perfect" "just right" "just enough" "not too much but not too little" etc

Do you have a word for a Peregrine? That doesn't translate back to Falcon

>>66961672
Then it's just one of those dumb words that has 4835 different meanings even in your own language because you're overcomplicated simpletons.

>>66961754
Not at all, I just don't know how I should explain it. It has literally one meaning here. The best one would be "not too much but not too little".

>>66961918
I think Lagom holds a positive connotation that differs from the neutral sufficient

>>66961918
No, that implies it's good enough for the work in context. That's not what you imply when you use lagom. "Sufficient" is the word "tillräckligt"

Saudade -It means, home sick or to miss some one.

interface, what the actual fuck does this evan mean?

>>66961918
>Whereas words like sufficient and average suggest some degree of abstinence, scarcity, or failure, lagom carries the connotation of appropriateness, although not necessarily perfection. The archetypical Swedish proverb "Lagom är bäst", literally "The right amount is best", is also translated as "Enough is as good as a feast".[1] That same proverb is translated as "There is virtue in moderation".[2]

>>66961974
>interface

It can refer to the means of interacting with a machine.

Your keyboard and screen is an interface. So is the remote control of a TV.

It's also used as a verb by annoying business and advertising people to say "conversed" or "interacted" ie, "we interfaced with the community in an open meeting".

I suppose english has a lot of words that can be verbs or nouns--I imagine that's annoying.

Minulla on = I have

vägi

Nah, I've heard people who are fluent use it. Normally if they're murmuring something in agreement with someone but not responding directly to a question.

"kut" - > divine right of rule


"hello" -> we have "merhaba" and "selam" and "esenlikler" but those are from arabic and persian.
there is a phrase in old turkic "inç keltim" which means "i came in peace" but still it doesn't exactly make up for "hello"

>>66979894
>"kut" - > divine right of rule
It's "Royal Prerogative" in English.

The Norwegian word for hypocrite is "hykler", sounds similar to "Heuchler".
"Skinnhellig" means something different. It's someone who pretends to be a better person than they really is or something. Assuming this is the same as "Scheinheilig"

>>66980452
>"Skinnhellig" means something different. It's someone who pretends to be a better person than they really is or something. Assuming this is the same as "Scheinheilig"
Yeah, that seems to be the same words.
Those guys are probably turks, scheinheilig would only mean hypocrite in very specific cases.

>>66980526
Don't be so harsh to them: LEO translates hypocrite as Scheinheilige,Heuchler, Pharisäer, und Hypokrit

Dude, schadenfreude has been in the English dictionary for the past century now. Alot of people use that word

>>66981503
It's not an english word though, it doesn't count.
Also, if you can't pronounce a word properly, you shouldn't use it.
So stop saying Zeitgeist, Wanderlust (which most of you use incorrectly by the way), Doppelganger and Schadenfreunde you thieving fuckers.

Reich by itself simply means Empire.
Holy Roman Empire = Heiliges Römisches Reich
Deutsches Kaiserreich = German Empire
Das dritte Reich = translated as Third Reich, for some reason. It should be Third Empire though.

>Kindergarten
I recently found out that kindergarten is used differently in America than in Germany. What Americans call kindergarten is actually something like a grade before elementary school. But before that, they have something called pre-school, which is what Kindergarten is in Germany.

'Gunnen'
It translates to 'awarding' or 'allowing' in Google translate but that isn't quite right.
It more or less means 'allowing someone to get ahead just because you like him, mostly disadvantaging oneself with the act'.
Prime example is allowing someone to have the last cookie even though you also wanted it.

>>66961554
>Post a word that your language has that English has no direct translation for, and post its meaning.

Geweer. Refers to a long gun, but can be either a shotgun or a rifle.. To my knowledge, there isn't a term like that in English.

>Also, post a word that English has with no direct translation in your language.

Gun. To stick with the same catagory.. Gun in English can mean anything from a huge howitzer or other artillery piece, to the tiniest of handguns.. I don't believe we have a word that captures all that.

>>66984125
>Prime example is allowing someone to have the last cookie even though you also wanted it.
That's called selfless in English.

>>66984312
>Geweer.
Long rifle I think.
>Gun
Gun does not mean artillery. It refers to small arms only, rifles/shotguns/pistols. An RPG is not a "gun", nor is a mortar.

>>66968251
well Fry was an old faggot so she's filling the same spot in the quota

>>66984403
>Long rifle I think.

No, because a rifle necessarily refers to a shouldered firearm with a rifled (hence the name) barrel.. 'Geweer' can mean a double barreled shotgun, a pumpgun, or other smoothbored (non rifled) shouldered weapon as well as rifle.

>Gun does not mean artillery.
It can.
>It refers to small arms only,
Absolutely false.
>rifles/shotguns/pistols.
And Howitzers, cannons, etc etc.. What do you think a 'gunboat' or 'gunship' refers to? Why do you think that classic WWII film about destroying artillery batteries was called 'Guns of Navarone' ?
>An RPG is not a "gun"
Obviously, as RPG stands for 'rocket propelled grenade'.. It necessarily cannot be a gun.
>nor is a mortar.
Not sure about this one.. I'm inclined to say you're right, and that mortars are not guns, but it's more of a feeling than anything else.

A gun only refers to artillery pieces in poetic English, colloquially they aren't called guns. You wouldn't tell someone you have a gun and then bring them out back to look at the AS-90 you stole from the Army.

>>66984835
>A gun only refers to artillery pieces in poetic English, colloquially they aren't called guns

Yet the term can, and does, mean gun in the English language..

>You wouldn't tell someone you have a gun and then bring them out back to look at the AS-90 you stole from the Army.

Maybe you wouldn't.. Then again, you claimed a shotgun can be referred to as 'long rifle' in English, so what do you know m8 ;^)

>Yet the term can, and does, mean gun in the English language
No, it doesn't. If you say "I have a gun", you're not talking about a fucking cannon. Poetic English does not equate to spoken English.

For example:
>Poetic
A stream of blood ran down his arm
>Colloquial
Veins hold a stream of blood

Referring to blood as a stream doesn't make sense in English, outside of poetic use.

>you claimed a shotgun can be referred to as 'long rifle' in English
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_gun
>Examples of various classes of small arms generally considered long arms include, but are not limited to: rifles, carbines, shotguns, muskets, blunderbusses, submachine guns, personal defense weapons, wall guns, and musketoons.

You know, sometimes I really don't like the fucking Dutch.

When the flow is more intense than dripping it surely is streaming

Smörgåsbord - literally translated as "sandwich table" but is basically a feast with lots of different dishes on offer. I've heard smorgasbord is used in English very rarely but it's not really an equivalent since it's basically a loanword.
Hyggligt - a nice/comfortable atmosphere or action. The closest equivalent would be "comfy."

>a word that English has with no direct translation in your language
