schadenfreude
German word, original translation loosely comes out as 'malicious joy'. In English, it's thought of 'malicious enjoyment from the suffering of another'. As there is no succinct English version of the word, English-speaking peoples have approximated this word and use it whenever they see people like corrupt CEOs get dragged off to jail.

schadenfreude
although "schadenfreude" seems widely known I've never heard it being used in casual conversation.
Probably it's more the problem of not knowing how to pronounce it. I've heard "skäidenfruhd," for instance :)
