Low effort.
At least pick some real sounding ones, like “Przemysław Mądrzykowski”, or something…

Most people don’t know what “real sounding” sounds like. Just like this German word isn’t real: “Feierverschwindungsgefühl”

Party-disappearance-feelings? Or “Feeling of party fading” Man the Germans have a word for everything! But seriously any real words compounded together that make anything near to sense, is a word in German.

Technically, that is a word in German, it means “feeling of celebration enshrinkening”. Might not be very popular, but it follows the rules 😉

Enshrinkening? Moar liek “vanishing” amirite?
jarfil@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Well, it would come from “ver- schwind
-en-ung”, so the closest translation to English might be something like “for-dwindling”… but the English “for-” seems to have lost some of the versatility of the German “ver-”, so the closest modern word that comes to mind is using the “shrink” meaning of “schwinden”, and translate as “enshrinkening”. Ultimately they’d all be synonyms.
