The German noun 'Meile' translates to 'mile' in English. It is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and some other countries, equal to 5,280 feet or approximately 1.609 kilometers.

In Germany, the metric system is officially used, so the 'Meile' is not a commonly used unit of measurement. However, it may still be encountered in historical or informal contexts.

It's important to note that the German word 'Meile' can also refer to a specific distance in different contexts. For example, the phrase 'auf der letzten Meile' means 'on the last mile' and is often used metaphorically to describe the final stage or part of a journey.
