Main sense needs expansion

[edit]

I've created this with the German translation placed on the disambig page - mainly as it seems the direct opposite of the term as it is generally understood (I doubt the Wodehouse novel is about spring-induced depression and lethargy). However, not being a doctor or psychologist, I couldn't really expand on this first usage much, hopefully someone else will... JohnnyZen (talk) 10:53, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The original author, User:Remotelysensed, put their translation of the German de:Frühjahrsmüdigkeit article in the wrong place (the disambiguation page) but also under the wrong term, since "spring fever" is a poor translation. So creating this article with contents that describe the direct opposite of the term was perhaps a mistake... I've split it to another article, see below. Also, "spring fever" is not a medical term, but a cultural one; although it has some basis in human biology, it's not a disease or a "syndrome". --IamNotU (talk) 15:52, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lost in translation

[edit]

It simply doesn't make sense because German terms got mixed up here. The German equivalent of Spring Fever is 'Fruehlingsgefuehle' and that indeeds refers to energy and sexual stimulance. 'Fruehjahrsmuedigkeit' is indeed the exact opposite and no German speaker would confuse these two terms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.231.197.183 (talk) 20:03, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I've split the "Frühjahrsmüdigkeit" section to Springtime lethargy. --IamNotU (talk) 15:37, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
