Schadenfreude is a perverse satisfaction in another's misfortune. This is not an exact answer to your question but I thought that an example might be helpful. You also get the added bonus of learning a new word. Удачи

Hi Smelval, When something is "perverse", it is outside of what is normally socially acceptable. It is almost un-natural, and goes against accepted ideals, standards and practice. I'm presuming that you know what "satisfaction" is - simply a feeling of being satisfied, a pleasure gained from a fulfilment of a need, or an expectation. So in putting them together, a perverse satisfaction is some kind of un-natural, strange, not normal pleasure gained from something. For example: A psychopath gains a perverse satisfaction in murdering his/her victims. contrary to the accepted or expected standard or practice
