    I’m German, I don’t need a dictionary for that. We make them up on the fly. For example, Autowaschanlagenführer or Türöffnungsmechanismuswartung

      I remember a little German from it being mandatory in school here in Denmark where we also like compound nouns so imma give it a shot:

      “Car wash hose boss” and “door opening mechanism maintenance”?
