The word "mamihlapinatapai" is listed in The Guinness Book of World Records as the "most succinct word", and is considered one of the hardest words to translate.

It allegedly refers to "a look shared by two people, each wishing that the other would initiate something that they both desire but which neither wants to begin."

A slightly different interpretation of the meaning also exists: "It is that look across the table when two people are sharing an unspoken but private moment. When each knows the other understands and is in agreement with what is being expressed. An expressive and meaningful silence."
