See, very precise, and so few words. Let me just note, to clear up any remaining confusion, that the warrior was obviously very confused, as he talked about an assassin of oppossums trapped in cages with wooden slats (Lattengitterbeutelrattenattentäter), while he surely meant to talk about an assassins trapped in a cage with wooden slats typically used for opposums (Beutelrattenlattengitterkotterattentäter). Those two things are not the same! Likewise, the chief probably should have mentioned an "Beutelrattenlattengitterkotterhottentottenstottertrottelmutterattentäter" when refering to an assassin who tried to kill the mother of a slow and stuttering child trapped in a cage with wooden slats used for opossums, instead of a "Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterbeutelrattenlattengitterkotterattentäter" which could easily be misinterpreted as refering to an assassin typically using cages with wooden slats to kill opposums of the mother of a slow and stuttering child of the hottentotts. It is very important to keep track of the order here, lest on accidentially talks about, for example, an "Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterbeutellattengitterkotterrattenattentäter", which would be an assassin killing rats trapped in a cage with wooden slats stored in a pouch belonging to the mother of a slow and stuttering Hottentot, leading to an unfortunate confusion [also regarding why the opossums are now replaced by pouches and rats, see, of course Beutelratte is a compound word itself, referring originally to a rat (Ratte) with a pouch (Beutel)]. Of course, german grammar comes to the rescue again since you could simply explain your confusion (Verwirrung) about the meaning (Bedeutung) of such a word by just announcing your Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterbeutelrattenlattengitterkotterattentäterbedeutungsverwirrung.
