I Want to Learn to Speak Another Language

I want to learn german because I like all the long words and that they have words that describe really specific things like

verschlimmbessern

my family always tell me to learn french or spanish though. they say it will be better.

I´ve found a very long word, too:

Donaudampfschifffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft ;) ;)

And it means:

Donau Dampfschifffahrt Elektrizitäten Haupt Betriebs Werk Bauunter Beamten Gesellschaft

Danube Steamboat Shipping electricity main control office building related subordinated state employee- Company

It is also a parody to bureaucratic style. Let´s move it in the correct way for the English language, then it means:

Company for subordinated state employees for the main control office for electricity constructions/building for Danube Steamboat shipping.

There are variants possible, of course.

The main idea was to find long words with a possible (maybe absurd) sense. ;)
