  • Finnish ones (some sayings here too):

    • “Ski into a spruce!” -> Get lost!
    • “So the forest answers as one calls into it” -> what comes around goes around
    • “If you reach for the spruce you’ll fall into the juniper” -> don’t bite more than you can chew
    • “to be like hit on the head with a piece of wood” -> to be baffled
    • “it went into the forest” -> something failed
    • “to have own cow in the ditch” -> to have their own hidden agenda behind a request or actions
    • “to throw the spoon into the corner” -> to die






  • Huh? The things people do for that wage will certainly rise in price due to inflation. Interest on bank accounts usually correlates with inflation, house prices go up with inflation (if you own one, it’s value usually does too)… It’s usually only stuff that wears out quickly and/or electronics (stuff that has steep inherent value deprecation) that do not grow in value due to inflation.
