ScottT Posted April 8, 2021 Report Posted April 8, 2021 While I was working in Ontario, Canada, outside a window of a hotel I was staying at was an old barn. The attached poster was glued to the side of the barn. The quality of the picture is bad as I took it from a distance. The place didn't look very hospitable. Anyway, the text (I believe) is, "An alle, die schuchlem sind". Google translate: To everyone who is schuchlem. I have 0 results in google on what the word schuchlem is. Anyone on here know by chance? I know this is quite an old poster, so if the unknown word is offensive in any way, then I apologize in advance. I truly do not know what the word is. Thanks!
