#WeirdWordWednesday @CBee
Both of these words were in the same paragraph in chapter 14 of the tagged book we‘re reading with #ThehashtagBrigade. I think they‘re both of German origin.
BarkingMadRead It was a lot, that‘s for sure! 1d
julesG Yes, both German. Schwärmerei is still used. Can also be used for concepts - like classical music or pastries. Backfisch is used, but for "fish&chips" kind of fish, not teenage girls 1d
Cuilin @julesG thank you 😊 interesting they‘re both still used and have evolved. 1d
