The plural form of 'autobahn,' referring to a system of high-speed superhighways found primarily in Germany.
From German 'autobahn,' where 'auto' means automobile and 'bahn' means road or path. The term was coined in German in the early 20th century for these expressways.
Autobahnen revolutionized German infrastructure and inspired highway systems worldwide, but the famous no-speed-limit sections are actually only on certain portions—a common misconception!
