C'est du Chinois!
This French saying is similar to the English saying, "It's all greek to me!" The literal French/English Translation: This is Chinese!
This unique book has a fun layout and design; read front to back or back to front. "Nom d'une pipe!," has the French translations starting from one end and English starting from the opposing end when flipped over. Most of the slang is British English and because I'm American I don't understand half of English sayings, but the absurdity of translating languages on top of obscure idioms is what makes this comic book dictionary such a fun read.
