...to continua with my word obsession. I stumbled upon this list of impeccable words that I just had to share with you guys. Hope you find it exciting as much as I did.Here we go again:
MAMIHLAPINATAPEI (Yagan, an ingenious language of Tirra del Fugo)- the wordless yet meaningful look shared by two people who desire to initiate something, but are both reluctant to start.
YUANFEN (Chinese) - a relationship by fate or destiny
CAFUNE (Brazilian Portuguese) - the act of tenderly running your fingers through someone's hair.
RETROUVAILLES (French) - the happiness of meeting again after a long time
ILUNGA (Bantu) - a person who is willing to forgive abuse the first time, tolerate it the second time but never a third time.
LA DOULEUR EXQUISE (French) - the heart-wrenching pain of wanting someone you can't have
KOI NO YOKAN (Japanese)- the sense upon first meeting a person that the two of you are going to fall in love
YA'ABURNEE (Arabic)- 'You bury me'. It's a declaration of one's hope that they'll die before another person, because of how difficult it would be to live without them.
FORELSKET (Norwegian) - the euphoria you experience when you're first falling in love
SAUDADE (Portuguese)- the feeling of longing for someone you love and is lost.
