Post reblogged from GermanHeit » Fun German Language/Culture Learning
We’ve already learned five funny expressions that include the word “Arsch” ( = ass). Here are some more!
1.) ein Arsch mit Ohren = lit: an ass with ears = just an expression describing an “idiot”
2.) den Arsch nicht hochkriegen = lit: (to) not be able to move the ass = (to) be very lazy
3.) am Arsch der Welt = lit: at the ass of the world = a place far away from civilization
4.) sich den Arsch aufreißen = lit: (to) tear one’s ass open = (to) work hard / struggle to achieve something
5.) für den Arsch sein = lit: (to) be for the ass = (to) be senseless / worthless
