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.”

    “I totally come from the mountains” = I’m out of the loop, unaware of recent developments

    Similar to ‘Have you been living under a rock?’.
