German

Sometimes, I just love my language. Where else do you have words like Kriegsdienstverweigerungsrecht or Generalstabsdienstverwendungslehrgang. And then you can make words like
Generalstabsdienstverwendungslehrgangsteilnehmer and it is still a word that makes sense and might actually exist.
See why you should never play Hangman in German?

I have watched the movie Princess Bride, but was reluctant to read the book because usually if I like a book I don't like the movie made out of it (that's that case with Harry Potter) or vice versa.

True. The only three titles where I enjoy both book and movie so far are Lord of the Rings, A Little Princess (the Alfonso Cuaron's version), and Brokeback Mountain.

Oh, a really good German book is "Krabat" by Otfried Preussler.

The English title is The Satanic Mill. So it's fantasy? Thanks for the rec :-)

It could probably be called fantasy, though the fairy tale elements are very strong.
