Gemütlichkeit
A feeling of warmth, cosiness, good cheer, and belonging. One of the most beloved untranslatable German words.
“Die Gemütlichkeit des kleinen Cafés war unvergleichlich.”
The cosiness of the little café was incomparable.
💡 There is no single English word that captures the full meaning of Gemütlichkeit. It encompasses warmth, friendliness, good cheer, and a sense of belonging all at once.
