    English has large compounds like this too, we just usually add spaces and/or hyphens so it doesn’t look quite as extreme when written out.

      We tend to limit it to two words most of the time, and most compound words in English are Germanic in origin.

        Well yeah I didn’t think about that but that’s usually true for the roots. The crazier ones I’m thinking of are with stacked prefixes/suffixes.
