High Voltage-Direct Current (HVDC)-transmission facility:
Hochspannung-(s)-gleichstrom-(s)-übertragungsanlage
!ich_iel@feddit.de has an ongoing meme conquest for memes facilitating the word Anlage, which either means facility or investment.
Not anymore ongoing :/
Warum ist das Fugen-S in Klammern? Es ist in diesem Fall nicht optional, da das vorausgehende Wort auf -ung endet.
wrsl damit die direkte übersetzung ins englische einfacher zu verstehen ist
Whatever a Hockspannungstromübertragungsanlage is, I see it as enlightened that the Germans haven't developed a simple word for it. Looks nasty.
*Hochspannungsgleichstromübertragungsanlage. But I have to admit defeat here, Hochspannungsgleichstromübertragung does get abbreviated as HGÜ, so almost nobody would write Hochspannungsgleichstromübertragungsanlage but rather HGÜ-Anlage, even if Hochspannungsgleichstromübertragungsanlage is a perfectly cromulent word.
You missed the gleich.
High voltage direct current "transfer" device.
Or simply a transformer.
But what's being missed is the fact that all German speakers will have a much better idea of what it is.
But transformer? Is it a giant robot? A car? Something that makes a giant robot into a car? Something entirely different?
High Voltage DC transmission system. So, not overly sinister, and probably needed.
Never thought about how many ways you can translate Anlage.
Donaudampfschiffahrtskapitänsmützenhalter.
Schifffahrt is spelled with triple-f since 1996.
Not the Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft though, as it's referring to a company which was established prior to 1996.
Do you mean until 1996? Looked it up on Duden.de and there it's only "Schiffahrt" with the mention you wrote it "Schifffahrt" in the past.
No, since. In 1996 it went from being spelled with with double-f to triple-f. Since 2004 you can also write "Schiff-Fahrt".
But triple-f is the correct spelling to this day.
Oh nice, duden itself isn't consistent with it's content. Searching "Schiffahrt" gets me the result that the triple f is the old way of writing it: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Schiffahrt
But I don't understand your last sentence. If both are correct than both are the right way. It's just like "größer wie xy" is correct for a couple of years. Maybe it doesn't sound nice, but it's correct.
Guten Tag
Hallo und hereinspaziert, junger Mensch.
Was machen ihre Anlagen so?
Die einen stürzen ab, die anderen rauschen in den Keller
Der war gut
Is that a warning for people with güten intolerance? Bc i'm pretty intolerant to these gutens
Fremdsprachanlage
Isn't that the safe word from Club Vandersexxx??
I thought it looked like some form of artilleri but apparently it's just a Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggning (in swedish) so nothing to dangerous.
Hmmm... I wonder what the elevatorpitch for a Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggningservicelektriker is?
Haven't you heard there is a Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggningservicelektrikerstrejk going on!
Hello! I'm the Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggningservicelektrikersanställningsansvarige. Would you like to work as a Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggn..."
No sorry, I have to go.
But it's a amazing workplace; Steve, our Högspänningslikströmsöverföringsanläggningservicelektrikersarbetsplatssäkerhetsavdelningsledare, will take...
SHUT UP!
[Screamd while dashing for the elevator exit]
Do you also want to use a language with so beautifuly convoluted words? Then Swedish ™ might be the language for you!
Here are some of the most common words to get you started:
Guys honestly how can dyslexic people read these "words"
I don't have an official diagnosis...just tendencies and I'm and english native speaker, but I didn't have any problems with german monster words when i was learning german because they don't really look similar enough plus when you're reading you just kind of slow down on the big words you don't know and figure them out or look them up. I found the german convention of capitalizing of all nouns really helpful too for reading. Yes, i realize i didn't even capitalize everything i was supposed to in english 😁
You'll get used to it.
I would argue since that is a compound word it is actually much easier to read since you know how the parts are supposed to be spoken. If that makes sense 😅
Speaking as a German and a software developer: just because you can, does not mean you should.
Sometimes it is easier and better to not stuff words together and give readers a bad time than to write "Schiffsschraubeneichungsvorgabenverordnungsüberwacher".
Schiffsschraubeneichungsvorgabenverordnungsüberwacher
From google translate: "Ship propeller calibration specification regulation supervisor"
Got another one for you: Mehrlagensichtfensterklotzbodenbeutel The bag some cookies come in.
Mehrlagensichtfensterklotzbodenbeutel
From google translate: "Multi-layer view window block bottom bag"
I literally can't see the word it's just a jumble of letters
I had dyslexia as a kid and long words freaked me out especially. I never realized that this isn't a thing for kids in other languages. But honestly: while they have a shock value, they aren't that common really
"Germansawordforthathave." bro they just twopreexistingwordsshovedtogether to makeanewword. Thatwecando too.
It's called lyrical art and I think it's beautiful.
I mean it’s like a built in parentheses from a functional pov. Saves parsing out what bag of words is grouped.
