| zwischen Baum und Borke stehen | to be between the devil and the deep blue sea to be caught between a rock and a hard place |
| zwischen Baum und Borke | between a rock and a hard place |
| zwischen Tür und Angel | in a hurry in passing |
| zwischen Hammer und Amboss | between a rock and a hard place |
| zwischen Pest und Cholera | between a rock and a hard place |
| zwischen den Stühlen | between a rock and a hard place |
| zwischen den Zeilen lesen | read between the lines |
| in Sack und Asche gehen | do penance in sack-cloth and ashes wear sackcloth and ashes |
| fest auf der Erde stehen | feet on the ground |
| durch Mark und Bein gehen | set someone's teeth on edge |
| in Saus und Braus leben | live in clover live on the fat of the land |
| besuchen Sie uns gerne wieder | come again |
| sich auf die Socken machen | take to one's heels |
| zwischen Skylla und Charybdis sein | to be between Scylla and Charibdis |
| zwischenblenden | transition |
| zwischenlanden | make a stopover stop over |
| Asche aufs Haupt streuen | to put dust and ashes on one's head |
| Schlange stehen | queue stand in line |
| Schmiere stehen | act as lookout keep a lookout keep cave keep watch |
| in Bausch und Bogen | well and truly |
