We can continue with the german for a long time, but it get's boring quite fast.
flugzeug - fly thing (airplane)
fahrzeug - drive thing (vehicle)
feuerzeug - fire thing (lighter)
Germans got lots of things

In Luxembourg, when you're really pissed at someone you say
Ech kenn him mam aarsch an d'gesiet sprangen - I could jump with my ass into his face

And a really nice expression that I picked up in Montreal, Canada is Asti tabernak ... carries weight like the f-word, but means housel tabernacle.
