German speaker required for 'Classic' FP query.

[Nik]

Hi, do we have any German speakers ? Or familiar with their vernacular architecture ??

There's a query on 'Classic' FP forum that has hit language barrier...

From context, I'd guess it is a 'catslide' roof, but I can't get beyond that.

( D'uh, I was no linguist anyway, did some *Technical* German for Chemistry, developed a mental block for post-fix languages of any sort-- Which is a shame, because I loved the versatility of FORTH... ; -)
