I need one of those good German words or phrases...for the dog
RJSV:
Hey:
Does anyone know the German equivalent phrase, for my dog friend's soulful gaze ?
Seems like 'Rufus' was questioning universal existence, or some shit like that !
She was giving lots of deep, probing eye contact, and came closer on the chair.
Almost seems like she was questioning life itself, and putting aside any quest for a cookie.
What's the German word, I mused ?
For an almost psychotic need for knowing the basis for life and the whole universe !!
I've heard folks call that 'The Void', which can be a panic causing metaphysical hunger.
OR, lol, am I reading too much into a puppy seeking religious salvation ?
Anyway, I'd please like a German term, for that.
Thanks

"Unsicherheit-weh-gesicht?"
RJSV:
I'll try it! (Will take a few minutes, not in office)
Thanks. That can be a romantic language.

It might be Weltschmerz: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weltschmerz.
This term is sometimes used to describe the picture Hund vor der Welt by Franz Marc (1912): https://germanmodernism.org/2015/04/06/hund-vor-der-welt-how-a-dog-sees-the-world/

Not a perfect fit but Weltschmerz comes somewhat close.
OK - someone was faster ;-)
