@TheSunmanho well, is your german teacher german? because we use the word "Fahrvergügen" here in germany, for example you say "pures Fahrvergnügen!"

I almost bought a '91 Jetta IDENTICAL to this one in the ad. I am a bit saddened I didn't. It was the"Fahrvergnugen" car"....

@TheSunmanho Well, I actually meant it to be "sojourner," but that's correct. I lived in Germany for 10 years, too. Germans never heard of this marketing campaign.

@Verweiler

your nick name is an example for that too, isn't it? "verweilen" means "to stay around" so a "verweiler" would be a person who stays around, a stay-arounder but in English this word doesn't exist. You made it up, didn't you? But it's possible in German. cool language

[Verweiler]

@TheSunmanho That's the great thing about German! You can always make up new words and word combinations!

[TheSunmanho]

my German teacher said the word didn't exist in real German language though Germans would understand it once it was invented. A similar but real German word would be "Fahrspass" (driving fun) but not "Fahrvergnugen" (driving delight).

well, so I was told

Where are the commercials that have girls singing "Farfegnugen, say the word" at the end? Anybody know what I'm talking about? The commercials are like this one but with the singing at the end.
