rolig commented on the word mitteleuropäische
"Mittel-European" is a peculiar hybrid. The German would be Mittel-Europäer. The normal English translations of the terms are "Central Europe" and "Central European". If you are talking about the German quasi-ideological notion of Mitteleuropa, I'd just leave it in German. Even "Middle Europe" and "Middle European" sound overly quaint to me.
