in der Not schmeckt jedes Brot | beggars can't be choosers |
in der Patsche sitzen | be in a tight corner be in a tight spot be in deep water be in in hot water be stuck between a rock and a hard place be up the pole |
an der Schwelle des Todes | at death's door |
in der Schwebe sein | up in the air |
in der Wolle gefärbt | dyed-in-the-wool |
in der Zwischenzeit | meanwhile |
in der Ruhe liegt die Kraft | haste makes waste more haste, less speed one step at a time slow and steady wins the race |
in der Schmiere sitzen | be in a jam be in the mire be in the suds |
in der Furcht, dass | lest |
in der Kürze liegt die Würze | brevity is the soul of wit |
in der Mitte von | in the midst of |
in der Nase bohren | pick one's nose |
in der Nase herumbohren | pick one's nose |
in der Scheiße | fucked |
in der Schwebe hängen | up in the air |
in seine Schranken weisen | put someone in their place |
in den Schatten stellen | dwarf eclipse outshine |
an der frischen Luft | outdoors |
belegte Scheibe Brot | open sandwich |
in Sprachen reden | speak in tongues |
