Fremps Alert



I dated this girl in college who used a word, "fremps", that she got from her Swedish (Swiss?) grandmother. It means to be embarrassed for someone else - as in, "I am totally frempsing for Lindsay right now."

Self-awareness is only funny in people who are otherwise NOT self-aware. This is sorta painful.

'Frempsing' in espaƱol is verguenza ajena...and I too am feeling it for her.
