As we drive around this week, I'll likely add to this posting. As far as I know, all European states use 'international traffic signs' with little to no wording that are standard, so people can understand them regardless of their language. This makes for some interesting interpretations to begin with, but once you figure out the context, they make sense.
For example:
Three hashes, followed by two hashes, followed by one hash (is not signifying military rank), but is followed by an exit sign.
A white triangle with a red outline is a "warning" sign. You should be aware of whatever is inside the triangle. The joke in our car is that whatever is in the triangle is "dangerous". So we have "dangerous sheep"
And "dangerous horses"
We passed a warning sign today with a pictogram and added language "red squirrels" - I'm not sure how these require a warning, but we all busted out laughing when we saw it!
