Hey Pandas, What's A Saying In Your Language That You Think Others Should Have Too? (Closed)

French: "Ça ne vaut pas un pet de lapin": it"s not worth a rabbit's fart" meaning it's not not worth it or doesn't worth much

This isn't really a language based saying a much as a regional one. My grandfather was from Barbados and used to always say, 'don't have race horse ride jack-a*s' . It essentially meant 'sometimes you have to do the best with what you have, you won't always have the best things and we'll need to be resourceful but if you set your mind to something you can make what you have work for you.

"Ghupft wia gsprunga" - "No matter what option you pick the result will be the same"

Saying from Spain. My grandmother says it all the time. "Para tirar cohetes". It translates to " to throw rockets" it means something is really good. For example if you really like a dish you can say" that dish was worth throwing rockets "
It sounds way better in Spanish.

Finnish: Sataa kuin Esterin perseestä – "To rain like from Ester’s a*s" Meaning its raining a lot.

Crazy is as crazy does

Argentinian: "BOLUDO" It is used to insult, to affectionately call a friend, to show surprise.

I know that in Spanish, "bobo" means "fool" I know someone who's Cuban and uses it a lot to the jackasses at our school

I'm not a world traveler and from the U.S. If you're on the back of a motorcycle, you're said to be, "riding b***h". Cause that's what bikers call their woman and it's usually who rides on the back. But, whether male or female, if on the back you're riding b***h. This female doesn't apply, I drive my own motorcycle.

Haggerty and Hennessy. Tempted not to explain. However, years ago in the New York Times Sunday magazine Bill Safire mentioned that it is pretty well known that Goodbye is a contraction of God be with you but it is less well-known that it only took one generation to make the switch. Those days it was common to part with the words have a good day hence haggerty. Later, people changed to have a good day hence Hennessy. Aren't you glad you asked?

My grandfather used to say: do you walk to school or carry your lunch? Meaning: are you mixed up, confused? He also used to make up words. Dilfarge = an unknown. Example: what's that dilfarge on your shirt?

I worked with a guy that if you asked what is that? and he didn't know he would say"Don't put yer lips on it". If he didn't know someone's name he would say "Yo face, c'mere" and sigh "marone" (bollocks)

in Dutch:
Het zal mij aan mijn reet roesten -
that will rust my @ss
= I don't give a sht

Not really a saying but a word. In Spanish, we have a word for someone from the US without having to say American. The word is “estadounidense” and is literally “someone from the US”
