Crazy German Words

Hallo,

So I was just googling some crazy german words and I stumbled across this word through this link with the Top 10 German Words.

The Number 1 word was:
Rindfleischettikettierungsuberwachungsaufgebenubertragungsgesetz.

The best way to tackle these large words is to split them up.
Therefore:

Rind: cattle
Fleische: Meat
Ettikettierungs: Labeling
Uberwaschung: Supervision
Aufgaben; Duttes
Ubertragungs: Assignments
Gesetz: Law

This is one of the longest compound words in German, but the longest actual word is unkameradschaftlichkeit. This is pretty small compared to the longest english words.

Overall this was very interesting to me. It was cool reading words that sound ridiculous.

Auf wiedersehen,
Sripriya
