Learning Languages - A Hint About German

Problem
The German word for clues is
Die Hinweise
How to I remember this?

Answer
The first three letters Hin are like the English word hint. Hint is like hunt.
We are hunting for a hint, a clue.
Hinweise - clue.
We must hunt the HINt (hint) and be W e ISE (wise).
HINWEISE

Another memory aid - it's German die as in the English word die.
Just in case you thought the word meant hint, it doesn't

The cluE is in the last letter hinweisE.
