Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation

Novi, what does it mean?:Pepper off!!!

Pieprz wyłączony 🥸

No, pepper is used as a verb here. :):):)

You know that I know what's going on, but I don't want to spoil the fun.

Get lost or even bugger off!

Sth gets sausaged. Or sb sausages sth. Sausage is a verb.

I wrote elsewhere:
in the next Pres elections Dems will win with flying colours.

in Poland we say: do sth with a finger in the nose:

Can you explain the etymology of this idiom???

A finger in the nose implies picking it. Picking your nose is associated with idleness - when people have nothing to do, they can while away time by picking their noses. So, doing sth with a finger in the nose means you do it effortlessly.

@pawian
Germans prefere to say:
Das mache ich mit links - I can do it with the left ( hand), and I used to say - on zrobi to z palcem w dupie - with a finger up his ass.

Or even "Das kann ich auch linkshaendig machen" = I'm also a lefty. (Even I'm a lefty).

To get oneself out of a sticky situation?

Almost. It means to recover from a health disorder like an illness but mostly some injuries. Can also be mental injuries. :):)

To be hungry?

To talk about something irrelevant or trivial.


To be prepared to do anything for someone?


To feel valued, priceless?


To have everything one wants, to feel happy and contented?

Mowic to srebro, milczyc to zloto = Silence is golden
For whatever reason, the first part is omitted in English.

That's why I enjoy so much looking at a blank TV for hours...

Rather like pantomime, isn't it?

To pretend not to see something?

To talk about something irrelevant or trivial.
To be prepared to do anything for someone?
To have everything one wants, to feel happy and contented?
To pretend not to see something?

Yes, those guesses are correct.


To be like gold requires a little different approach. It is not that you feel like gold, it is what people think of you. A boy like gold - he will be a perfect husband one day.

The opposite of what I said then! Thanks for the explanation and the link. Really sad story about the paramedic :(

Of course not. Didn`t you say valued, priceless?? One can feel like that or others might think so about you. The core meaning is the same. :):)


Rather demons, not ghosts. I got blinded by the Poltergeist expression.
