don't worry next time i'll learn german before trying to spell a word on the internet

Yeah don't worry like 80% of the members here have learned ANOTHER LANGUAGE before going to this forum so yeah I'm pretty sure looking up the spelling of one specific word ain't too bad.

Fucking smart-ass.

If you're going to use schadenfreude, you have to be able to spell it. You just look like a little kid if you spell a word like that wrong.

Plus, it doesn't matter if it's a German word, because it's fairly well known among English speakers. Amigo isn't an English word but English speakers know it and know how to spell it.

to be honest, I thought I did.

I didn't know the exact spelling so I just looked it up and whatever came out first I copied over - it turns out (i guess???) that where i copied it from was also wrong, which i honestly think wouldn't be a big deal because people would know about the concept i was referring to anyway and wouldn't wig out over something that trivial, right????

....Ha! Did you forget already? In my world, the color red doesn't exist. These must be... my tears. Ever since I woke up from my coma... ...I think I've been waiting for this very moment. You'd do well to remember this, Maya. The only time a lawyer can cry is when it's all over.

amigo is easy as fuck to spell! Schadenfreude isn't. Yeah if you're going to casually drop terms into a convo wouldn't hurt to spellcheck it but he didn't, big whoop! Hop off your soapbox, grand inquistior..

If you're going to throw around a word like schadenfreude, you can't switch two vowels that would make it be pronounced completely different in almost any language. It's not like leaving out the c.

Moral: don't use that word, you always look like you're trying too hard to prove you know it

my whole point was

the way he spelled it

means he was pronouncing it wrong in the first place and that makes him look like a big old dummy. I was pointing to the pronunciation mostly
