What are some (non-English) idioms, and what do they mean (both literally and in context)? Odd ones, your favorite ones - any and all are welcome. :)

For example, in English I might call someone a “good egg,” meaning they’re a nice person. Or, if it’s raining heavily, I might say “it’s raining cats and dogs.”

    We do “my dick sweats”, for the same thing, which I now realize sounds super gross.

      Yeah, it is 😂.

      We also have a phrase “dick dangles in cold water” which basically means nothing’s happening or something is irrelevant 😂.
