Büstenhalter ("Bustholder") = bra
Handschuh ("Handshoe") = glove
Arbeitgeber ("Workgiver") = employer
Krankenhaus ("Sickpeoplehouse") = hospital
Staubsauger ("Dustsucker") = vacuum cleaner
Volkenkratzer ("Cloudsscratcher") = skyscraper
Okay, that last one is at least cool in English too. Then there's the amazing word Zeug (stuff):
Fahrzeug ("Drivestuff") = vehicle
Flugzeug ("Flystuff") = airplane
Feuerzeug ("Firestuff") = lighter
Schlagzeug ("Beatstuff") = percussion
When you have a crush on someone, you "stand on" them (auf jemanden stehen). Then when you are tired of them, you "have the nose full" (die Nase voll haben). Maybe you even give them the basket and make finish with them. Makes perfect sense!!
That's all! Bye!
