Good morning all / Guten Morgan,

Please assist. What does "Unbehagen" mean ?

I know what Tongesangst means but was told above word is different and person could not provide an example or 2.

Danke in advance.

I would say Discomfort. Nina Hagen had a punk album by the same word.
Never heard of Tongesangst. What does it mean?

I agree with your translation, waleed. He meant "Todesangst = fear of death" with "Tongesangst".

Tongesangst? In tune perhaps?
