In the German language, you can sometimes turn a whole *sentence*
into a single word! <g>
It's actually pretty interesting - when you try to look up an
apparently compound word, you won't find it in the dictionary. You
have to sort of intelligently break up the word into it's component
parts, look up *those*, and then try to figure out what the word
means.
