I don’t think so, every language has some concepts or words that translate poorly. Languages are also rooted in culture, so for instance some jokes in the English language are either hilarious or meh or fall flat depending on if you’re in the US, the UK or Australia.
I dunno. Some humor does, but man try watching comedians outside your home country with subtitles. So much of it just bombs. Come diams tap into shared experiences and the nuances of them. So much of that is culturally, geographically, politically relevant.
