Every language has its own, special idioms. There are thousands of idioms and they occur frequently in all languages. There are estimated to be at least twenty-five thousand idiomatic expressions in the English language alone… but few are as interesting as these ones. Enjoy!
Unfortunately, I don’t know who the original artist is – I found these on Imgur. If anyone knows the original source, please let me know so that I can credit it!
Edit: found it (or so I think) – this is the original source.
Do you have any strange idioms in your language? For me, the most fun one is: “Who burns with soup, will blow in yogurt” (meaning is something like if you burn yourself with soup, you’ll try to cool yogurt) – someone who makes a clear mistake, will be needlessly careful after that.
