Idioms game with SBD prizes (number 9)
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!
It's been another week of travelling, but I'm glad to be home again! Hopefully staying put for a few weeks.
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
- 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!
- Have a go at trying to guess the meaning of each picture/idiom. You can enter BOTH a serious and a funny entry.
- Do it for each three!
- So to be clear: Each picture, a funny entry and a serious entry!
- 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.
- 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!

agree! If all language tutorials came with hilarious flashcards I'd probably speak Spanish by now (been trying for months!)
Easiest way is to go and live there! When you have speak to survive, it's pretty amazing how fast you learn!
Will have to save up for a good long while first- Spain is a helluva distance from South Africa, and the ZAR hasn't been looking great! Will have to stick to Duolingo for the time being, until the poor Spaniards who have to listen to my broken attempts are driven crazy at least!
Here are the winners and the next round!

Thanks again!
Hilarious... again.
The guy that has made the cards must have had a wonderful time doing it. How on earth can you keep coming up with these hilarious images?
The first one is really funny.
The last one was again unknown to me. Didn’t know it was an idiom.
Still the funniest contest on SteemIt :0)
Glad you find it funny on a different level than what we do!
Maybe the last one is a idiom from north of the border?
Naa, we use it too. Just never thought of it as being an idiom...
