I would like to know any, shall I say, "out-of-use" german words that may or may not carry connotations, like 'jawohl' or 'Fräulein'. And of course words that would sound somehow weird nowadays. I am doing this simply for fun and knowledge.

Jawohl. simply means Got it. It's not outdated. You may hear




Jawoll!




quite often if one acknowlegdes something which went well. For example, commenting a good move in a football game.



Fräulein is not used any more to address unmarried women. You may still hear it when parents address their daughter.




Ach, das Fräulein will wieder mal verreisen. – Ja, Papa!

                      0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?
