Some nice new idioms...

Gaud bless the English language and all who sail in her...


Why do we say "to sort the sheep from the goats"?
the German version is "die Spreu vom Weizen trennen" and it makes much more sense.

"To take the plunge" ladies and gentlemen is "den Sprung wagen" in German. Both of those sound sensible.

More very soon :-)
