Here we call it "Spanish shame" (borrowed from brits, but they're too politically correct these days to use it anymore)

Myötähäpeä
Means "mutual shame"

Now that I think about it, we actually don't have one
The closer we got is "encolher", but it means shrink

Vergüenza ajena.

I don't really know the meaning of cringe

You get embarrassed for someone else.

>"Spanish shame"
I had to google that. иcпaнcкий cтыд. I am russian but never heard of that expression. So it is not a hugely popular expression to say the least.

We don't have one.

Though we've started to make use of the spanish expression, vergonha alheia.

So... what's up the hispanics and cringe?

No, it means you're brainlet, son of emigrants or teenager.

You have no shame

Fremdscham = being ashamed of someone else

?

imbarazzante

isn't that the general feeling of shame?
we have "embaraçado", but it just means the state of being restrained due to shame of one's own actions, not the actions of others.

We have too many words to compile it all in one word like "cringe"
we have:
-estranho
-vulgar
-cafona
-degenerado
-mané
-bobo
-vergonhoso
-ridículo
-burro
-deshonroso
-tarado
-inapropriado
(best imo) -sentir vergonha alheia
list continues...

Vergonha alheia é a expressão que define melhor, mas cringe eu vejo mais como "ato de se encolher por conta da vergonha alheia"

żenada

This

"Fremdschämen", it means "feeling ashamed for another persons actions".

This. Based Chile, as always.

"Cringe to da max" is how we actually say it.

In Central America, the Antilles, Colombia, Panama, Venezuela and Mexico is called "pena ajena"

>I am Russian
No you are not

Isn't "cringe" a word that means "second hand embarrassment" or someone is "embarrassing"

Pena ajena

You're just dumb.
