By the way, is it OK to include Scandinavian countries as part of Europe?
Greenland, however, with a strong connection with Denmark, is disputable if it is a part of Europe.

I'd be censored if I said what a 'good end' in Swedish would sound like.
The last time I was in Italy, my chess playing friend said something like 'eating a piece'. Well, in this context I found out what is was. He also thought me the expression 'eating wood'. Well there is a jargon in every language.
Another (not so oftenly used) jargon expression ...[text shortened]... livering 'bra drag' is 'ge ett pulver' meaning 'give a pill', or 'give a powder'.
