aftselakhis
(noun) An untranslatable Yiddish word, aftselakhis is defined as a deep desire to execute a certain deed, because somebody else doesn’t want you to or told you, you’re unable to accomplish it. (via wordsnquotes)
This is wrong; aftzelakhis isn’t a noun, it’s an adjective or adverb, and it means “so as to anger/annoy” (i.e., so as to anger or annoy the person who forbade you to do it).
(via animatedamerican)
It’s not identical in meaning and doesn’t capture all of the nuances, but I feel like “spite-fueled” would be a decent rough translation.
