Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity

The German language (-> Sigmund Freud / Angst / Über-Ich / ...) has a word for the phenomenon which doesn't exist in English: "Schwellenangst".

Translates as "threshold anxiety" or "(Psych) fear of entering a place (fig)".
