The German word for defusing a bomb translates literally as "remove the spicyness". 🌶️

You don't actually speak German, do you?
@Giliell @sixohsix entschärfen
@LunaDragofelis @sixohsix Yepp, which is de-sharpen, not de-spice (which would be "entwürzen"). European languages generally don't have an actual word for the taste/sensation of capsaicin. We all use some word that originally means "causes pain" "scharf" in German, "hot" in English, "picante" in Spanish.
