German word of the week

Following yesterday's Lexical gaps post I've gone one better and found an even more interesting resource.

This one comes from dw.de the German broadcaster.

It's called Word of the Week and is just exactly that, a new strange German word of which there is no translation into most languages.

Warning: these are not always very funny!

There is a word of the week archive, too, so if you're really bored or a German culture Vulture then this is the ideal place for you to go in a wet weekend with a steaming hot cup of Muckefuck and a freshly baked Weckmann.
