@clixmoney started a new trend here on Blurt; sharing expressions and proverbs from where you come from.

Being Hungarian myself, I have many of those up in my sleeve. . .
Hungarians always come up with some pretty weird stuff that makes no sense to anybody (often not even for me 😅).

So here is me, starting my series of weird Hungarian Expressions and Proverbs.

Falra hányt borsó

The literal translation of this is
"peas thrown onto a wall".

This expression we use when it really doesn't matter what you say to a person, they just don't care, and they do not consider it at all.

An example of it's use:
I called Vladimir Putin and I've asked him to stop the war. It was like peas thrown onto a wall.

In other ways you may also like to say "It's like talking to a wall." Which in Hungarian it sounds like:
Mintha a falnak beszèlne.

But i prefer the first one. . .

Do you have any expressions or proverbs where you live, or where you come from that you would like to share?
Share them using the #blurtep hashtag, so we can find them all in one place.

Much Love, Petra 💜
