Drive-in

In a drive-in services are offered, the customer must leave his car without this.

At the drive-in concept is a Scheinanglizismus. The actual English term is called drive-through, shortened drive-thru ( to English: drive [ -] through / thru, from: [to] drive through / thru = "[ back ] go through " ) as opposed to the drive-in (on english: drive-in; too: [to] drive in = " drive in ", " [ he] pure drive "). Since " through" is unspeakable for many native speakers of German, in German-speaking countries, the term " drive-in " is used.

The term drive-in is a fast food restaurant where the customer is served in a parked car, or a drive-in theater in the United States. Today such devices are a rarity.

McDonald's own use the trademark McDrive, which is not used in the United States.
