Schadenfreude

Schadenfreude is the great pleasure derived
By someone, from another person's misfortune
Its ironic that the Germans have a word to express
My pleasure at them being knocked out so soon


(FIFA World Cup Russia 2018 - South Korea 2 Germany 0)

Now remember the end of WC-2014 and imagine how the Brazilians felt yesterday!

I came across this word in another forum just yesterday.

I dit mention the word Freud seems to be in it too.

I didn´t know the word was used in English too:

What goes around comes around Danik

Thanks Cacian, its the little things in life that keep us going

Its not widely used, except in the media, but i like it.
We dont have an equivolent word in English that so encapsulates the feeling.
We have Gloat and Revel, but they are tame in comparison.
Thanks Danik
