Zugzwang
Among English-speaking chess players the word Zugzwang has been adopted since a long time. But they should ask their German colleagues how to pronounce it right. (especially the first 'Z') .
Feierabend
What's left out in the description is that it is not only about that certain time after work - 'ich mach jetzt Feierabend' is also Your declamation that you have done hard work and you are now about to finish it for the day and you don't expect and you won't accept others - neither your boss nor your colleagues - to call you until tomorrow morning because your Feierabend is a well deserved one and you want to keep it undisturbed as you need your recreational time!
The rich in England don't want you to adopt that word with that concept in mind...
