"Outcounterexampled": there's a neologism worthy of German.

Great idea. I'll start with 1, and then you'll say 2, and then I'll say 3. That's right, I start with 1, and then you say 2...

- beeforpork 3mo agoI must object. Because this is derivation, not composition. German is noteworthy for its long compositional word formations (though many other language are, too, e.g., Finnish). German can do derivation, too, but not significantly more than English (and the verb prefix 'out-' is hard to map into German in this case). For admiring derivation, you'd have to point to, e.g., Greenlandic instead (e.g. _iliorfigeqatigiissariaqaraluarput_ roughly 'they should work together' (from the Declaration of Human Rights)). To be clear, I do like 'outcounterexampled' a lot!
