Wonderful Welsh word meaning 'shame' or 'pity' — used (more's the pity) only in Welsh English as a way of expressing moderate poignancy, compassion, or empathy for an ironic or pathos-laden situation. Or even just as an indicator of cuteness.
"Bechod on him: he bought her a very expensive ring and a day later she left with his best friend."
"What a lovely kitten! Bechod!"
A better example of the sheer potency of the word might be:
"Bechod! Our one-legged, 102-year-old neighbour mowed our lawn whilst we were away on holiday in the Bahamas!"

Get the bechod mug.German composer who lived 1770-1827.
Composer of 9 syphonies, 23 piano sonatas and numerous other woks, is aknowledged by many as one of the greatest classical composers the world has ever seen.
He began to lose his hearing in 1801, and pursued a rather erratic form of behavior. His opera, Fidelio, completely flopped and Beethoven had to revise it several times.

However, it was during this time he wrote "Symphony no.9", (while completely deaf) which is now reconized by many as the finest Symphony ever composed.
Other famous works include:
Sonata Pathetique Op. 13
Sonata quasi una Fantasia, Op. 27
Symphony 5
Fur Elise
He is amongst the "Big Four" of the classical composing community, with Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky.
