Ooh im gonna have fun looking through your dictionary in more detail later! I've started collecting obscure words on my notes app, and it's a lot of fun I have to say! Here's what I've collected, sorry if there's a repeat in here! Leucistic - white animals that aren't albinos Quixotic - extremely idealistic; impractical and unrealistic Myrmidon - a follower or subordinate of a powerful person, typically one who is unscrupulous or carries out orders unquestioningly. Insouciance - casual lack of concern; indifference Sybarite - a person who is self-indulgent in their fondness for sensuous luxury (hedonist-like, but not the same). Cingulomania - a strong desire to hug someone Aquiline - like an eagle (usually used to describe a hook-like nose, sometimes to describe aristocratic noses) Sibilant - a hissing sound, eg "a sibilant whisper" Echolalia - repeating someone else's words repeatedly. Used in psychiatry as a symptom for certain disorders; common in child speech development. English is such a fascinating language to dig into due to the various influences within it. My list alone has references to Greek mythology, some of Latin origin, some from French, as well as a reference to a Spanish novel. I'm always delighted when I find a text that uses a word I'm unfamiliar with. More on reddit.com

I get that the word untranslatable is chosen to be practical here, but technically each and everyone of the 203 words listed are translated in this article. They just don't all have an equal in English and need more than one word to be translated/explained. The most ironic part being that the writer even points out how hygge, gezeilligheid and Gemütlichkeit are technically just all the same thing but in 3 different languages. More on reddit.com
