I knew that, I saw what companies were competing with me for the top spot in
google for that search. Presumably ancient German, as opposed to modern
German, did not deal with cash registers so I still have some hope.

Aparently it´s also Swedish for "small plastic bag" or something along those
lines and it´s Dutch for "greenhouses". I´ll live.
