not entirely OT request for help
Once upon a time, I got harped at by someone complaining, "They don't say XYZ-phrase in ABC country." So now Ara's wondering, "'kay, what DO they say?"
I would like to request, please, that anyone familiar with any non-English language, French, Spanish, German, Chinese, Korean (I've got Japanese covered ^_~) "colorful metaphors" please drop me a few? Anything from what the proper phrase for "oops" to "go fuck yer mother" or anything in between is happiness.
Just trying to keep the realism alive and happening in the ficcing. Thanks bunches!
