Knoblauch - garlic

Der Durchfall - diarrhoea (literal translation 'fallthrough')

Kinderlähmung - Infantile Paralysis / Polio

Can still remember German A level back in 1983!

And carrying on the medical theme, I always liked the word die Verstupfung, which I think means 'constipation'.

Busenhalter (bosom holder) exists only in the world of Benny Hill unfortunately. I suppose it could be a legal term meaning the person who holds (i.e. owns, has possession of) the bosom.

Buestenhalter (bust holders) are what German ladies actually fill, and here's the proof: http://www.buestenhalter.com/germany/
