German Travel Dictionary

German / English Translations

German is one of the best languages for you to know if you're travelling through Central and Eastern Europe. Many people in Germany speak some English, though many are reluctant. In addition to German being spoken in Germany, it is also spoken in Austria and Switzerland, and many Eastern Europeans speak German as a second language.
