Is it not a German compound word?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

„Torpfostenbewegungskrieg“ would be correct. I‘d prefer „Torpfostverschiebekrieg“ though.

It's incorrect actually! We don't compound adjectives (Beweglicher)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Interesting! Thank you for the explanation.

We do it though... it's just not correct.
