I love the German word ver­bes­se­rungs­be­dürf­tig, meaning in need of improvement. I’m not German, but thought this was a cracking word.

    German legalese has Verkehr as a reference to in Verkehr bringen which means put something on the market / put something on circulation.

    But it’s hard to recognize /learn because

    1. Verkehr almost(?) always means traffic outside of legalese and
    2. There are also traffic laws, that also use Verkehr but really mean traffic
