Rolls off the tongue a little better. I dunno if such shortening would happen. For fun, for example, in a friendly conversation where you make up your own words like "frenemy". I'm an English speaker with some German training but no speaking. :)

Edit: Looks like this is used in one place on the Internet and Google actually translates it "admiration" if used in a sentence.

"können mich mit ihrer eifernden Sehn-, Wunder-, Macht-, Bewundersucht"

"I can with their zealous yearning, wonder, power, admiration"
