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.”

    There’s a Dutch saying “gasten en vis blijven drie dagen vers”.

    Guests and fish stay fresh for the days. Very similar meaning
