EINFÜHLUNG
Noun. Early 20th century.
[German, from ein- into + Fühlung feeling.]
Empathy.
I'm going to word today's post very carefully. And let me start by stating that I love loanwords in English, and I love the German language (it's on my list of languages to learn before I die). That being said, however, I must admit that, were I searching for a synonym of empathy, German wouldn't be the first language I'd reach for. And neither would einfühlung. It just wouldn't. I'm sorry. I'm clearly racist.

Clearly.
ReplyDeleteThat's me, being ein with your Fühlungs.
As long as you don't schaden my freude.
DeleteEmpathy is just an egoist's attempt at sympathy, anyway.
