Re: Broadway Limited 70-ton offset Quad hopper

Literal German translation is closer to dirt or dirty. If you wanted to say to someone that he had a spot or dirt on his shirt, the word you'd use for that dirt is drek. Yiddish would be closer to (keeping things as clean as I can) the product of a bowel movement. The generally accepted translation is "rubbish" if you go to most on-line resources.
