RUSSIAN IDIOMSBy Natalia Sachkova
Russia, Moscow
LIKE THROWING PEAS AGAINST THE WALL
To say something (usually being irritated) to which
not the slightest attention is paid
TO MAKE A NOTCH ON ONE’S NOSE
TO STRAY IN THREE PINETREES
To be confused in the simplest questions
To travel without paying for a ticket
It is absolutely ridiculous, funny, silly
MUCH WATER HAS FLOWN AWAY
It was long ago. Much has happened since that
time
TO HANG NOODLES TO THE EARS
