countable verb

noun

I'm German and I just use whatever sounds better and "Geschicksproblem" would sound even more like you just had a stroke. Also it's kinda part of the meme to make words as long as possible because it's funny.

Geschick and Geschicklichkeit are pretty much synonymous. Maybe Geschicklichkeit suggests a bit more that the natural skill is enhanced by technique and training, but that's it.

Welp, I tried. German grammar eludes me again. Thanks for the info though! and for catching that error :)

  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
