The German language is similar to Lego. You piece together words to
create a new one. Vogel means bird and Gesang is the act of singing (not
the word for "song" which would be "Lied").

The technical term in English for German compound nouns is "portmanteau words". Vogelgesang and fingerspitzengefuehl (best translated into English as "by the seat of your pants) are examples.

It isn't difficult to learn a new language. Go to a place, acquire a girlfriend who doesn't speak English, and voila, a week later you will speak the language. Most natural thing in the world
