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 remember something
forever
TO STRAY IN THREE PINETREES
To be confused in the simplest questions
To travel without paying for a ticket
FOR THE HENS TO LAUGH AT
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
