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.”

    Yeah, I think the negation part in Macedonian was added later on, in newer generations because it sounded more “cool” I guess. But the phrase has been around for a very long time, probably like 70, 80 years, maybe even longer.
