THE EUROS FOR IDIOMS: Slovenia vs Denmark
🇸🇮 A Slovene way of saying OMG is tristo kosmatih medvedov! It means “three hundred hairy bears!”

🇩🇰 A colourful Danish exclamation of surprise translates to “never have I shat so thinly!”
We’re all just quietly getting on with the bleak weather. Makes no difference at all really, does it? All just got our heads down, dealing with it, not getting sunburned, grateful for the decent sleep, keeping our eyes out for those three unholy 44°C days from hell that’ll come out of nowhere at some point, but apart from that it’s all quiet on the western front. Easy street.
There’s an Icelandic way of saying of “I’m gonna kick your arse” that translates to “I will take you to the bakery.” A Hungarian version is “you’re prying open the lid of the slap-crate.” And the most colourful threat I’ve come across in Urdu… “my foot is in your butt’s destiny”
How bat shit crazy is this: we have millions waiting to see doctors and yet thousands of U.K. trained doctors can’t get a job?

@DGMultilingual Great stuff Daniel. Shame we didn't get to meet at the conference.
And being a specialist translator for whisky sounds great.
I occasionally do translations and editing in this subject and it really is very fascinating and it helps if you like whisky 🙂
I’ve said “isn’t it lovely” about the weather about 25 times today. I’ve also said “everywhere’s so nice and green after all the rain we’ve had” about 8 times. I’ve done 4x “I could get used to this” and an equal amount of “this is the life”, and 2x “I hope it lasts”. I look forward to saying a couple of “it’s cold when the sun goes in”s later on.
