My colleague Maren Heiber alerted me to a curios case of word migration: the Norwegians use vorspiel for "pre-party". In German, Vorspiel has several meanings (among which "sexual foreplay" features prominently), but it never means "pre-party". The Norwegians also use nachspiel, but more about this in a future post!
