i've read about this element of language before, it's called agglutination. lots of languages do it to varying degrees, the ones that use it extensively come up with some pretty crazy words though. there's a hungarian one: "megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért " wikipedia says it means "because of your continuous pretending to be indesecratable," and in an interview (a band uses it) the guy says: "
The meaning of this word is also kind of cool, because it's about consecration and deconsecration, and that someone is acting like he would be not the one who could be deconsecrated, and he got this thing as a consequence." pretty fascinating.
i took french for 10 years or so but i'm not completely fluent. i guess the most annoying thing about it, coming from speaking english, is dealing with masculinity/femininity, haha.
i learned the russian alphabet for sh
its and giggles, so i can sound out words but haven't a clue what they mean.
