Linienschiffe (Ships of the Line) are pre-dreadnought battleships...

Panzerschiffe is a new class designation invented for the "Pocket
Battleships"
of the Deutschland class (Deutschland/Lützow; Admiral Graf Spee und
Admiral
Scheer)

Panzerkreuzer is armored cruiser (altough some people call the
Panzerschiffe
so)
 
Battlecruiser is Schlachtkreuzer

The correct german spelling for Battleship is: Schlachtschiff (yes, I am
sure...)
...plural: Schlachtschiffe

Tschüß !!!
