Time's running out to join the Lingoda Language Marathon. The German language has a word for that feeling: Fernweh. There are other, more poetic definitions of the word as well, one being “homesick for a place you’ve never been.” Homesick is a word we all know (in German: Das Heimweh), and Fernweh is the exact opposite. Another German word that is a bit more common in the English language, but describes roughly the same feeling, is wanderlust. Join the Lingoda Language Marathon today.
