Warenhaus
Be careful with the German false friend Warenhaus as it refers to a department store rather than a warehouse. Herrenbekleidung befindet sich in diesem Warenhaus im ersten Obergeschoss can be rendered in English as The mens clothing department in this store is on the first floor.
A warehouse for storing goods is translated by Lager(haus) in German.
Karneval
In Germany and Switzerland Karneval begins at 11.11 on 11 November and ends on Ash Wednesday, while in Austria it begins on 6 January. The festivities comprise various traditions such as masked balls and culminate with the processions held on the Monday before Lent (Rosenmontag). Karneval is called Fasching in southern Germany and Austria, and Fassenacht or Fasnacht in some other regions.
