I know about 13 billion English words, all of which would offend anyone.
And now you're asking for a single word, just to start WW3? How cheap, unless you are George Walker B., in which case the question would make sense.
During WW2, Portugal was neutral, allegedly, and spies from
every corner of the World came there. Two German spies on their way to Good Old England met at a bar in Lisboa and ordered drinks.
'Two Martinis, please', said Spy I.
'Will that be dry Martinis, sir?', asked the waiter.
'Nein, du Dummkopf, nur zwei!'
Get it?
Im falle nicht, kann ich dir ein sehr billiges Kurs in Englisch/Deutsch anbieten - so lange wie du nicht Herr Georg Walker B. bist. Das würde viel teurer bleiben.
Let me know the answer to your riddle (German: Rätzel, same word as in English).
Tee-hee

it is the word "Kraut" because in WW2 was used by the US military to insult Germans for their habit of eating Sauerkraut.

If you say Gift to a German, he will think you're going to poison him. 'I'm going to give you a gift'...oh oh.
