Years ago in Germany some friends came to visit .The were going to an Expo in Cologne .
They went off the following morning to find their car .Back they came .Couldn't find it .I asked them where and had they taken a note of the street .
The reply was that that they had parked on Einbahnstraße and we spent about two hours looking for it :-)

To look even more authentic, leave out the spaces, German words often run loads of nouns etc together. In the days of corridor trains, (Google it if you don't understand the concept) my husband always referred to them as Zugmitbog. Definition of a microsecond in Germany? The time between the lights changing and the car behind you hitting his horn.
