Who is interesting about translation rugby terms English/French/Spanish?

Do like the way the Germans stick shorter words together to make longer ones with a different meaning, one of the things I like about studying the language.

yeah, like capital city of the island is 'inselhaupstadt'.

I do speak German, as 50% of my heritage is from Germany (my mother's parents left Germany after the war, from Heidelberg, to... Australia).

In (Flemish) Dutch, my mother tongue in Belgium we keep the english terms but call the forwards : voorwaartsen
Backs: driekwartspelers.
