TipRing@lemmy.worldto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Discovery returns to screens April 4thEnglish61·1 year agoFor me it was just the emotional tone. I only watched the first 5 episodes, but one of the things that makes Star Trek enjoyable for me is its optimism about the future. Discovery was really bleak (at least to start) and I couldn’t keep watching it. I’ve heard it gets better, so maybe I should give it another shot.
It’s a promotional photo for the 1989 movie Loverboy.
Ah. That makes sense, I wasn’t thinking about proper names and split the word in the wrong spot. Still i think german compound words aren’t that big of a deal once you get used to parsing them.
Ok, so without looking (and forgive me my vocabulary is really lousy from disuse)
My strategy for compound words is usually to try to break up the word, starting at the end, since mostly they are nouns with a bunch of adjectives stuck in front.
Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän
So kapitän is easy since it’s a near cognate for captain.
Gesellschaft looks like a word i used to know, but I can’t remember it.
Schiffahrt - i don’t know this one, but it looks like schiff (ship) plus fahren (to go) - shipping?
Ampf - no clue
Donaud - I feel like this must be modifying ampf, because it doesn’t look like a word on its own, but since I don’t know ampf I am stumped.
So my guess is someone in charge of something to do with shipping.
I didn’t know the term for that kind of screwdriver in German, but I speak it enough that if someone asked me for one, I’d know what they meant because the name is descriptive. In English, not so much.

My issue wasn’t with the show, but with Paramount+ as an app with it’s 60+ trackers. I actually really like the show, just not enough to deal with Paramount’s spyware.
