German-English
Between two languages
German-English describes something that bridges the German and English languages, typically a dictionary or translation resource: a German-English dictionary, German-English translation software.
It can also describe bilingual contexts or people who navigate both languages: a German-English interpreter, German-English relations in the postwar period.
