God damn the German language sure uses the entire alphabet in every word......How do they fit names onto their street signs???

the longest street name in Germany is "Bischöflich-Geistlicher-Rat-Josef-Zinnbauer-Straße", which I don't think is that different from something like "St Martin-in-the-Fields Church Path" in the UK.

(I'm purposefully ignoring Wales, because they're just fucking with us at this point)
