Listen carefully.
Oberammergau, Germany, 1971. Most buildings depict the town's draw: its Passionplay. During our European vacation, our visit here was memorable because a restaurant server tried to shortchange us. She claimed our bill was "Zweiundsiebzig" (72) Deutschmarks; when we sat down to eat, she had said the meal would cost "Siebenundzwanzig" (27) Deutschmarks. Fortunately, my Parents were fluent in German.
