Title: Beautiful Words That Cannot Be Translated Post by: imran on December 02, 2014, 12:32:37 AM Every language is unique. It doesn't matter if it has the same roots (e.g. Spanish and Portuguese), each language developed its own unique phrasing, words and meanings. If you're bi-lingual, and you've ever tried to translate from one language to the other, you probably had at least a few times said: "This can't really be translated.", because each language does have words that just don't have a parallel in other languages.
Here are 30 fine examples of some truly great words that just can't be translated into another language. 1.
