I actally thought of creating such a list myself a few days ago. Very nice to see this here!
One improvement I immediatly thought of:
Usually you cannot say/know that one word cannot be translated to ANY other language, because nobody knows all languages. But what you actually can know is that a word in one language does not exist in one other language. You know that if you speak these two languages. So storing triples makes more sense, I think.
Example: Because I speak german and french, I can surely say that the german word 'satt' (meaning: not hungry anymore) does not have an equivalent in french. But I have no idea if it exits in japanese. Someone else knowing german and japanese has to fill this gap.
There are also duplicates in your Database like 'Kummerspeck'.
- stephsmithio 8y agoThank you! Yes, I've had this feedback since launch that some people are finding words that do indeed translate to a few other languages. I'll think about how to edit this. Thanks for calling out the duplciates1
