"Schadenfreude"'s English translation is "schadenfreude".
- vidarh 5y agoOr "glee". Glee is just much broader, but given the right context it's a fine synonym.
- wunderlust 5y agoThis seems problematic. "Given the right context" a lot of words could be synonyms. It seems like it's implicit in the meaning of "synonymous" that two words share the same meaning if they're interchangeable (in their respective languages) in all contexts.
- vidarh 5y agoSynonyms are rarely exact matches, and even more rarely exact matches without additional context. Long and extended are synonyms when talking about length, but not family for example.
