German

German compounds nouns into single words and puts finite verbs at the end of subordinate clauses, so translated strings run roughly ten to thirty-five per cent longer than the English source.

Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic

Compound nouns overflow narrow buttons and table headers; test the German build at your smallest breakpoint before release.

Swedish

Swedish compounds nouns into single words and has a common and a neuter gender that determine article and adjective forms, which makes interpolated nouns risky.

Script: Latin · Family: North Germanic

Failing to compound is a visible error: "kund tjänst" instead of "kundtjänst" reads as broken Swedish, not as a typo.

Formality in this pair

The du-reform of the 1960s made du universal; formality: more produces a polite register rather than the archaic ni.
