This is an english/german dictionary of motoring terms(non-serious,this is 
eunet.jokes remember).
The reason german was selected was because when they don't have an
existing word they can sometimes assemble a new one from bits they already
have.Therefore non-british people who speak english should pronounce the
german phonetically.
I would like to appologise to any germans offended by this gross misuse of 
their language,but its all done in the best possible taste.

			Entschuldigen sie bitte,ich bin sehr sehr sorry!
