Untranslatable words (part 3)
Here are part 1 and part 2. I have also made other posts with untranslatable words in Spanish and German.
Arabic: غرفة [ḡurfa] (the amount of water that can be held in one hand), يقبرن [yaqbirna] (literally “may you bury me”, wishing that a loved one outlives you because of how unbearable life would be without them)
Bantu: mbuki-mvuki (to shed one’s clothing spontaneously and dance naked in celebration)
Dutch: gezellig (cozy, nice, pleasant, sociable), struisvogelpolitiek (literally “ostrich politics”, an evasive style of politics that fails to address problems by either ignoring them or by creating a false sense of security through ineffective measures)
Finnish: poronkusema (the distance a reindeer can comfortably travel before taking a break, around 7.5 kilometers/4.7 miles)
French: feuillemorte (of the color of a faded, dying leaf), l’appel du vide (literally “the call of the void”, the inexplicable draw of the dangerous and unknown future), noceur (someone who goes to sleep late or not at all or one who stays out late to party)
German: Drachenfutter (literally “dragon fodder”, the gift a husband gives a wife when he is trying to make up for bad behaviour), Kabelsalat (literally “cable salat”, cable clutter)
Greek: μεράκι (intense passion)
Hungarian: szimpatikus (nice, likeable)
Japanese: ぼけっと [boketto] (gazing vacantly into the distance without thinking about anything), 風物詩 [fūbutsushi] (the things that evoke memories of a particular season)
Hawaiian: ʻakihi (listening to directions and then walking off and promptly forgetting them)
Hindi: जुगाड़ (jugāṛ) (a process or technique that lessens disorder in one’s life, making it easier to manage or more convenient)
Icelandic: tíma (not being ready to spend time or money on a specific thing despite being able to afford it)
Indonesian: jayus (a joke so terrible and unfunny it can’t help but make you laugh)
Inuktitut: ᐃᒃᑦᓱᐊᕐᐳᒃ [iktsuarpok] (the act of repeatedly going outside to check if someone is coming)
Italian: commuòvere (to move in a heartwarming way)
Malay: pisan zapra (the time needed to eat a banana)
Norwegian: forelsket (the indescribable feeling of euphoria experienced as one begins to fall in love)
Portuguese: nefelibata (literally “cloud-walker”, one who lives in the clouds of their own imagination or dreams or does not obey the conventions of society), saudade (a vague, constant desire for something that does not and probably cannot exist, a nostalgic longing for someone or something loved and then lost)
Russian: разлюбить (razliubit) (to fall out of love)
Sanskrit: कल्प [kalpa] (the passing of time on a grand cosmological scale)
Scottish Gaelic: sgrìob (the peculiar itchiness that settles on the upper lip before taking a sip of whiskey)
Spanish: cotisuelto (someone who insists on wearing their shirt tails untucked)
Swedish: mångata (the roadlike reflection of the moon on the water), smultronställe (literally “place of wild strawberries”, a special place treasured for solace and relaxation, free from stress or sadness), tretår (on its own, “tår” means a cup of coffee and “patår” is the refill of said coffee, so a “tretår” is therefore a second refill)
Tagalog: kilig (to experience shivers and suffer pangs from strong emotions, usually romantically)
Ursu: گویا [goyā] (a transporting suspension of disbelief, an “as-if” that feels like reality), ناز [nāz] (the pride and assurance that comes from knowing one is loved unconditionally)

the uninformed were like 'how is calling checo unfocused based on him being mexican (while being incorrectly referred to as south american) racist?' and i finally have an answer for those fools through nyck de vries's dismissal, because helmut said nothing about whether nyck being dutch factored into his dismissal.
helmut never said 'oh, i thought nyck on basis of being dutch would be the next verstappen and would be beating yuki', he just said 'nyck underperformed so we removed him from the team'. it's that easy. there's no need to bring in someone's ethnicity into criticism of their performance. helmut could've said 'well, checo's not performing to our expectations and we're trying to evaluate why' and left it at that.
