Idioms game with SBD prizes (number 12)
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!
Okay, I'm falling behind on my posting... So, this one is a few days late, sorry to leave people hanging (@panamamama)!
Anyway, there is a new bonus, suggested by @davidblackwell, if you make an entry and resteem this post (not mandatory) then you will go into a random draw for a bonus 0.1 SBD prize. Just in your answers just write that you resteemed.
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!
- BONUS: if you make an entry (required) and resteem (not required) then you go into a random draw for an extra 0.1 SBD. Just write resteemed in your answers so I don't have to chase everyone down!

I don’t really get the first image. I would have drawn something completely different. The third one is hilarious - lol
Yes, I would have as well.
Translation into Frisian and Danish poorly conveys the meaning, I write in English, it is closer to the topic))
Really:
The brain drain from the former USSR to the USA
It's funny:
Wind in the head
Really:
Dad and his son played in the Indians, and no eagle feathers were found anywhere.
It's funny:
I can not kill this chicken, I'm waiting for its natural death
Really:
When I pierced the wheel, the first thought is about the dog
It's funny:

Google translate tends to occasionally be a little funny. Better in English! (4)
