Is there any difference between “Zeug” and “Werkzeug”, since u list “tool” as a translation for both of them, or are they just synonymous?
Oh, I added that to the entry of “Zeug” because there are so many compounds with it, but by itself alone, “Zeug” does NOT mean “tool”. I added that as a note in the entry of “Zeug”.
