(insert title here)

How would that be used in a sentence? Genuinely curious.

Seine Bemühungen führten lediglich zu einer Schlimmbesserung der Umstände.

Finally, a word I can use to explain my entire life

I'm german and I have never heard of this word before. It doesn't make any sense at all.

I like that one even more than "kaputtreparieren" (meaning to repair something until its broken beyond recognition). The german language is full of wonders.

""Chữa lợn lành thành lợn què" is a Vietnam saying mean "Fix a healthy pig by making him amputated"

And here's me liking the post because I know the context behind that image...

Germans have some such-on-point words, it's beautiful

Needs a picture of Cas too haha

Why is there no poster?

I'm German and I have only heard it as "Verschlimmbesserung" or as the verb form "verschlimmbessern". Often in school context when you get panicky at the end of an exam and start to change correct answers for wrong ones ;-)

Pretty much sums up Sammy
