As an American, I am in perpetual shock that schadenfreude doesn't have an English analog.
It's literally our most universal core societal value here and we don't even have a word for it.
It does have an English analog, it's schadenfreude. Like many (most?) English words, it's been adopted.
Well, English is a Germanic language.
As a German, that makes me schadenfroh.
