    The French really like it for some reason. It means shoelaces in Hungarian.

      Speaking of palindromes, fun fact: “()()” is NOT a palindrome, but “())(” is.

      The first one is like ABAB, the second is like ABBA.

      The most german thing is to read that no problem at the first try. But our language is cheating with the combining words thing.

        Dutch does that but there are limits. Four, five, six words smashed together?! Doe normaal! Germans… always going a bit too far… 😉

          Yeah laws or very specialized tools/Maschines can get crazy, but I think our lawmakers are also trolling sometimes with the long titles.
