The Yaghan word “mamihlapinatapai”, which is described as “a look shared by two people with each wishing that the other will initiate something that they both desire but which neither one wants to start.
Found this on one of those lists of words in other languages that are hard to translate to English.
I really like this one. I know exactly the look it’s talking about.
