    "how in the world could a word that is hardest to translate be succinct."

    You've got it backwards, mate. The fact that it's so succinct is WHY it's so hard to translate. It's a complex concept wrapped up in a single word. In English, it requires an entire sentence to basically explain. One word: succinct. Entire sentence: Not very succinct.
