This is the 9380th most frequent German word.
meile
"Mile" – a unit of distance.
Here, 'Meile' is used in its primary sense as a measure of distance equivalent to a 'mile'.
Die erste Meile dieses Rennens ist die schwerste.
The first mile of this race is the hardest.
'Meile' is used again as a measurement of distance, often used colloquially as an approximate or literal term for linear distance.
Das Geschäft ist nur eine Meile von hier entfernt.
The shop is just a mile away from here.
In this context, 'Meile' could signify a specific area designated for a purpose, such as environmental improvement, rather than strictly a measure of distance.
