We all know a few German words: kindergarden, delicatessen. Child garden. Delicate eating. That is four German words already. Add aufweidersehen. Goodbye. Five German words.
But, however many words I know in English, French, German, Latin, Italian, Spanish, the writers of the Sunday Times come up with new words, especially Greek. Today's challenge is a German word:
schadenfreude - malicious glee when hearing about the misfortune(s) of another
