Asunder
Melancholia

If you like skyscraper you'll love fireplace
I tend to associate "highrise" with a mid-height apartment building of less than 20 floors, while a true skyscraper should be dominant on the city skyline (and essentially a city unto itself)
Also my vote is for "albeit"
>Skyscraper
>fireplace
Fireplace is the best so far. The rest are just fancy-sounding and not poetic.

I think the German version "Wolkenkratzer" is also nice. It means "cloud scraper".
My favourite word is probably Vorstellungskraft. A literal translation would be "imagination, fantasy", but it is actually composed of the words "Kraft" (strength, power) and Vorstellung (imagination), which further consists of the words "vor" (in front of) and "stellen" (to put, to set or to place). So the German word for imagination is "the power to put (something) in front (of you)".
Yeah, I'm probably autistic.

Did you just select them randomly? Or is there actually any reasoning to any of them?
Forehead
agreed. sounds like it should describe a school of thought. not a religious sect
I love German, but, why does Schwarzenegger not translate to black nigger?
Because the german word for nigger is "neger", not "negger". Also, Schwarzenegger is a composition of "Schwarzen" and "Egger", and it means "from Schwarzenegg".

With all due respect words don't have to be "poetic" to be god tier. Also I don't really see how fireplace is all that pathetic. Seems very matter of fact (unlike skyscraper). In my opinion true God tier words are phonetically pleasing sounds which have a meaning which accompanied them well.

i love those kind of germanic "this is what it does, so this is what we call it" words. related, unterseeboot is even better than submarine.
