| Post subject: | Idioms in Nynorn |
I happened to think about idioms in Nynorn. It would be interesting to translate them, as it's I guess an important part in any language. Some idioms I thought of : -In the Kingdom of the Blind the One-eyed are Kings (also leads us to think about subsantivisation of adjectives) -To separate the wheat from the chaff -To rain one someone's parade -To get away with murder |

There are some idioms in Jakobsen's dictionary as well and I think we should also use such expressions from Orkney/Shetland dialects. |
