    This was much harder than I expected. Quite a few words I was unfamiliar with. Even still, it was enjoyable. 13/20

    "Oomph" is the sound you make when you get hit in the stomach. It is NOT an exclamation of pleasure. Unless you have some pretty unusual tastes.

    I’ve always understood it as adding some energy to something “put some oomph into it”

    62, totally English since the year dot, been on Countdown, and I only got 13 :( Certainly we've only ever used schadenfreude. Zonk, in the form zonked, is more commonly used to mean "very tired", as in "I was completely zonked out".
