There is a word in German that describes the good feeling one gets when something bad happens to someone else - what is it??

I don't believe there is an equivalent word in the English language.

I want to write "That's awesome" meaning "I really like it" to a British client/business contact.
Would that still be OK? Any suggestions? Thank you.

I mean, if everyone speaks the same language, and everyone understands the other without the need to learn a new language ... wouldn't that be great ?

Kindly answer with intelectual rationality through agile and real or true reasoning. No doubt none of the answering commisioners here are expected to posses a degree or a masters or even a doctorate in archeological studies but it dont take those to know the truth. Besides Sanskrit is not known as a widely spoken community language

It is my dream to someday go to China and/or Taiwan. But right now that is a long way off. (I'm 14)
I really want to learn Mandarin Chinese, written and spoken. I have only just gotten started, and I have found some good resources online and in libraries. What I'm wondering is - is it possible for someone knowing no Chinese, to one-day become fluent in it? Or will I always sound "broken", even if I spend a long time studying it? I have heard that it is the hardest possible language, and that makes me somewhat pessimistic.

Also, what are the best ways to learn? I'm using "How-to" guides, but also listening to music and trying to translate.

Xie Xie for your help!!!
