minus-squaredependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 month agoCan schadenfreude be broken up like this?
minus-squaredependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 month agoThanks. Interesting how that doesn’t seem to fit, to me, with how I’ve heard its meaning described as “Pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others”.

Schaden = damage
Freude = joy
