in der Schwebe hängen | up in the air |
in der Schwebe sein | up in the air |
in der Schmiere sitzen | be in a jam be in the mire be in the suds |
an den Lippen hängen | hang on every word |
in der Familie liegen | run in the family |
in der Scheiße | fucked |
einen Schwatz halten | hobnob |
den Schnabel halten | shut up |
in den roten Zahlen | in the red |
in der Nase bohren | pick one's nose |
in die Bresche springen | step into the breach |
in die Scheide stecken | sheathe |
in drei Tagen | in three days |
den Schein wahren | keep up appearances |
in den Rücken fallen | stab somebody in the back |
in den Schatten stellen | dwarf eclipse outshine |
in der Klemme 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 |
in der Kreide stehen | owe |
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 |
in der Tinte 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 |
