Idioms game with increased SBD prizes (number 9)

in #contest6 years ago

Please if you are Dutch/Belgian please leave the "correct" answers for other people from other languages, so we can all have fun! The prize for the "funny" answer is bigger anyway. Bedankt!

So, I'm posting the winners and answers post (and the new idioms) a touch before the last one pays out. The kids are asleep, and I want to get this done before I start playing Pillars of Eternity (streaming over at @msearles)!

Due to a touch more exposure, I've increase the prizes again!

I'm learning Dutch. Everyone is familiar with idioms in their native language, but in an adopted language, they can quickly make you sound like an idiot! So, these are a few idioms in Dutch that I'm trying to learn, before I make an arse of myself!

Photos are my own!

To play this game, no Dutch is needed, I will give the literal translation in English.

Rules

  1. Upvote if you want, it helps me out to get the prizes done. Resteem if you want, again exposure means that maybe I can continue to increase the prizes!
  2. Have a go at trying to guess the meaning of each picture/idiom. You can enter BOTH a serious and a funny entry.
  3. Do it for each three!
  4. So to be clear: Each picture, a funny entry and a serious entry!
  5. Winner is at post payout. For the first serious correct entry (of each picture) there is a prize of 0.1 SBD. For the funniest (determined by me!) entry (for each picture) there is a 0.25 SBD prize.
  6. So, 6 prizes! You don't have to make an entry for each, but please make it clear so I know what is going on!

Thanks for putting in an entry! (5)

Serious

  1. The news (bad) has been released... (eg. tax increase by gvt for example)
  2. going on the bottle means the news is so bad I have to get drunk. probably because the bomb has burst so I'm going on the bottle.
  3. To set the lots on Stilts. To set the record straight.

Funny

  1. I just let go a bomb (fart)
  2. I am going to sails the seven seas on a floating bottle
  3. If the world is a stage, let me play the tall fool.

Serious/Funny (at least I hope it is)

  1. Failed to make an impact / Happy to be alive
  2. To be in a drunken state / To be in a sober state (i.e. sitting on the bottle instead of drinking it)
  3. To appear greater than what it seems / To take the moral high ground (sorry, I don't think that's funny at all :D)
