The world has a lot of different standards for a lot of things, but I have never heard of a place with the default screw thread direction being opposite.
So does each language have a fun mnemonic?

This one…makes no sense to me. What is that supposed to mean (or how does it relate to the original expression)?
Is it some comment about how sometimes it’s hard to get something started, but eventually you’ll get the result you were looking for, or something?
If you turn the screw to the right, it becomes tight. If you keep turning it, it comes off.
Just means “don’t overdo it”.
Gotcha, thanks.
