welding > wedding

Webster's dictionary defines wedding as "the fusing of two metals with a hot torch."

in German they use the word for assembling 2 big mechanical parts together, like the carriage and the body of a car

I don't know German but i love its penchant for just welding words together seemingly more often than other languages
