Yes, but it also consists of three workd afaik.

The same way mushroom is mush&room.

Erm no? Auseinandersetzen makes perfect sense to me when said in four different words while mush room doesn't.
edit; My grade at German is a 1 though. On a scale of 1 to 10 so I might not be the most reliable source

And that's where you're making a mistake. Because literally translated aus-ein-ander means "out of one different".
Never mind that ander isn't even a real word.

[Dutchling]

Oops. It is a dutch word so that confused me. As I said, I suck at german. The only reason I'm learning is that it was either french or german.

[Darvi]

You have chosen wisely then. *shudder*

I didn't even have the choice.

[Dutchling]

Well the first three years of high school (middle school?) I had to learn french, and german (and potentially latin and greek) lessons started the 2nd year. After the third year I had to choose one of the two/four. I actually almost had to do the year over again because of my bad marks for french, german and drawing (don't ask).

edit; aaand I should really stop posting useless stuff here and start learning again.

[Virex]

Learning my German words.
sich asueinandersetzen mit
whyyyyyyyy

Seriously, half of the words all 10+ letters 

It's not that much longer than it's dutch counterpart 'uiteenzetten' anyway. Which, incidentally, also is a single word.

Geez, that is hardcore.

Why can't the American Congress be like that? That would make CSPAN's ratings go through the roof.

Two senators enter, one senator leaves.

In the end, there can be only one.

I wish.

This is how California's yearly budget "debate" should be solved.
