noun

admission

The German word "Einlass" is a noun composed of two parts:

  • Ein = "in" or "into"
  • Lass from "lassen" = "to let" or "to allow"

Meaning:
"Einlass" refers to admission, entry, or access to a place or event—literally, the act of letting someone in.

Similar words:

  • Zutritt (access/entry)
  • Eintritt (entrance, admission especially to events or venues)
  • Zugang (access)

Differences:

  • Einlass often emphasizes the permission or act of being let in (e.g., "Der Einlass beginnt um 19 Uhr" – "Entry begins at 7 pm").
  • Eintritt focuses more on the physical act or fee of entering (e.g., ticket admission).
  • Zugang refers to the access or way to a place, often more abstract or general.
  • Zutritt is similar to Zugang but often used especially in terms like "Kein Zutritt" (No admittance).
