The word "remember" doesn't have a direct translation in German. The basic verb "to have" doesn't have a direct translation in Hungarian.

 

Not surprised about some caboverdian piece of art.

 

Portuguese  Sodade is in the portuguese-based creole language that is spoken in Cape Verde (which I always liked it, as I grew up in a city with many descendants from old imigrants from our old colonies), and comes of the word "Saudade"

vs

North Macedonia

 

 

The final match of the day features another 2 nations who have an unbeaten record in Group F. Hong Kong won their only match to date, beating Belize 6-2. And another victory today would guarantee a top 3 finish and qualification from the group.

North Macedonia have drawn both of their games so far, drawing 4-4 with Angola and Barbados. One win in either of their final 2 matches may be enough to see them through the group.

 

A total of 8 match judges have been assigned the task of adjudicating this match.

The judges are each allocated a specialised hut which are located at various vantage points surrounding the arena where the artists will perform.

What’s general meaning of the word? I know it doesn’t have a direct translation, but would you mind explaining to me what it means the best you can. Y’all know how much I love language 

 

Basically is a mix of feelings, but mostly that nostalgic feeling caused by the absence of someone, or something, or some place, or even by the willing of wanting to relive something from the past.

 

I think it was put into a word as a way of describing the feeling of people whenever their loved ones would leave to explore the sea or to fish, but also the feeling the navy guys had of their own home whenever they would be far away in the sea or colonies.

Doesn't it describe that melancholic, sad feeling when you're missing something?

 

Yeah kind of, sad and happy at same time

Sounds very much like the word "bittersweet" then.

Kind of, but you don’t generally look at something affectionately if it’s bittersweet.

[OlympicIRL 4,771]

It sounds like nostalgia is the word it is most closely related to... it is a happy and sad feeling about the past or something missing.
