omg that's fantastic

I'm borrowing this one..

"Bacon" is not really correct. "Speck" is the fatty part of bacon, therefore you can also refer to you belly fat as "Speck" instead of "Fett" (fat). Literal translation: grief fat

I'm saying "what an odd place to find a lobster" irl from now on

The real quote actually is "great minds think alike, though fools seldom differ"

Cats!!! I’d be happy at this party.

imagine the tardis rejecting itself out its own doors

May I add: "Mit dem ist nicht gut Kirschen essen", literally "With this guy you cannot easily eat cherries", means that you will encouter a crumpy person.

It should be written "wurst" instead of "Wurst". The noun Wurst means Sausage but the adjective wurst means it doesn't matter. (In German all nouns start with an uppercase letter.)

Germanversion: Milchmädchenrechnung; lit. "milk maid's calculation". It's based on a small folk tale of a milk maid thinking about what she'll buy with the money she'll get for the milk, and what she'll buy for the money when selling THAT etc - and then she spills the milk.

There are a lot of funny descriptions for remote or unattractive places in germany. Such as "Da liegt der Hund begraben" (This is where the dog has been buried) or "Da willst du nicht tot überm Zaun hängen" (You don't want to hang dead over the fence)

In Dutch they are called ‘zwembandje’: inflatable ring

The deceased, of corpse.

you can also says: pousser du vieux avec du neuf (pushing old stuff with new stuff) :-)

That thought makes me extremely uncomfortable...

I took it to mean "dancing with one's own sister" or even a nun.

Being Mexican I heard this a lot as a child. Trying to explain this to my non-Spanish speaking friends was really funny.

I usually say "Febo asoma", which would translate to something like "morning has broken" or something (febo is another name for the sun).

That just dailed up to eleven O_o

That might be problematic to say these days, but I love it. Very succinct and rather self-explanatory.

*glaub

...well then. I actually read that.

brutal. I love it!

That is a brillant description of taking a nap. :D

I'm just going to say "your goats have run to the mountain!"

It's translation is more like: 'The truth is finally revealed'

Occupe-toi* :)

Perkele, the legendary Finnish way of drinking! https://youtu.be/NAl9OyGYxOg

German "alles in Butter" means "everything is alright". Back in the days, fragile things were transported in butter (as in, you poured molten butter over it and then transported the whole hardened block).

In Serbian, the equivalent would be: "Spoon in the honey". Кашика у меду.

Polish: ‘jak pączki w maśle’ which means ‚alike the donuts (dipped) in the butter’

OK, I'm gonna add another butter one: "mít máslo na hlavě" means in Czech "to be guilty of something." but literally it means: "to have butter on your head"

more or less the same in Dutch, but "fall into the butter with your a*s"

in portuguese : you have born with your a*s on the side of the moon (literally) means you always have luck

that would be similar in Italian: col culo nel burro - to be very lucky - with your butt in butter

A South African said to me, "You have landed with your butt in butter". Meaning things have turned out alright.

In polish similar expression is "jak pączek w maśle" which is literally "like a donut in the butter"

Endearment terms in French are pretty weird when you think about it. \1 mon petit chou /chouchou = my little cabbage /cabbage-cabbage (for both genders) 2\ ma puce = my flee (parents to their daughter or boyfriend to their girlfriend) \3 * mon lapin = my rabbit (I mostly hear older people call their grandchild like this) >> That's for the most common ones!
