This was thoroughly entertaining, recognizing each word's meaning is like solving a small puzzle. Like recognizing English words written in katakana. Some words were taken directly from German, like waterstuff (== Wasserstoff), sourstuff (== Sauerstoff). Bernstone for amber/ēlektron is my favorite.
