Guys honestly how can dyslexic people read these "words"
The really long ones are a pain to say to as well. You're kind of Strangling your self trying not too paus in the middle of a word. Only a problem for the awfuly ridiculous ones thought.
There are no people with dyslexia in Germany. The Kaiser implemented these super long words as a eugenics project to eliminate them. It is a very dark part of our history only few people know about 😔
I know it's a joke, but with the level of scrutiny Germany has attracted for its dark history there's litle chance people wouldn't have heard of it by now ;-)
I literally can't see the word it's just a jumble of letters
I had dyslexia as a kid and long words freaked me out especially. I never realized that this isn't a thing for kids in other languages. But honestly: while they have a shock value, they aren't that common really
Got another one for you: Mehrlagensichtfensterklotzbodenbeutel The bag some cookies come in.
Tf is a Klotzboden
From google translate: "Multi-layer view window block bottom bag"
window block
bottom bag
I don't have an official diagnosis...just tendencies and I'm and english native speaker, but I didn't have any problems with german monster words when i was learning german because they don't really look similar enough plus when you're reading you just kind of slow down on the big words you don't know and figure them out or look them up. I found the german convention of capitalizing of all nouns really helpful too for reading. Yes, i realize i didn't even capitalize everything i was supposed to in english 😁
I would argue since that is a compound word it is actually much easier to read since you know how the parts are supposed to be spoken. If that makes sense 😅
Speaking as a German and a software developer: just because you can, does not mean you should.
Sometimes it is easier and better to not stuff words together and give readers a bad time than to write "Schiffsschraubeneichungsvorgabenverordnungsüberwacher".
Sorry for replying this late, totally missed it but i like the analogy. But what would be the alternative? Creating a new word for every function?
P. S: Also SchiffsSchraubeenEichungsvorgabenVerordnungsÜberwachung is much more readable: That's why sir Pascal mounted a camel and created PascalCase and camelCase! (reading all the other answers I am proud that we collectively came to the same conclusions that it should be PascalCase!)
German's more extreme compound words seem like a good linguistic use case for CamelCase.
It would also make sense as the rule is to capitalise the first letter in all nouns
Technically you mean PascalCase - camelCase starts with an uncapitalized letter :)
From google translate: "Ship propeller calibration specification regulation supervisor"
An English software developer would write that as,
ShipPropellerCalibrationSpecificationRegulationSupervisorso only the camel case would make a difference hereOnly a Java dev would write that abomination
Not quite, for Java you still need the Factory part at the end!
I hope it implements the
ShipPropellerCalibrationSpecificationRegulationSupervisorFactoryInterfaceYou'll get used to it.
