WOTD (Word of the Day): Schadenfreude Schadenfreude is pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others. This word is a loanword from German, the direct English translation is 'Damage-Joy' or 'Fail-Joy', it is the feeling of joy when one sees another fail, and is also borrowed in some other languages. It has been calqued in Danish and Norwegian as skadefryd, in Swedish as skadeglädje, in Finnish as vahingonilo, in Dutch as leedvermaak and in Ukrainian, Russian and Bulgarian as 'злорадство'. * Use in a sentence. Any businesses or individuals who engage in greedy profiteering during the coronavirus pandemic are examples to the world of what “schadenfreude” looks like and what it is. Shady characters. ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
