Everyone’s like “those Germans have a word for everything” but English has a word for tricking someone into watching the music video for Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up.

English has a lot more words created for very specific phenomena! It’s not just rick-rolling. Language is always evolving and it’s super interesting! Here’s a list of hyper-specific/untranslatable words in English.

This happens a lot with compound words in particular. Seriously, the construction of English compound words is so fascinating; just what you’d expect from a mongrel creole fucked-up language. And here are some more English-Specific verbs.

This is either going to be the most wonderfully educational post I’ve seen all night, or else this is five (5) links to the music video for Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up.
