peer agreement (net): +2Dick from the sticks Explanation: "From the sticks" corresponds to "с горы," as I understand from what others have written. I give this medium confidence because I am no expert on the nuances of Russian idioms. However given the word "хрен," I don't see how a translation that omits the relevant part of the male anatomy (such as "damn idiot," from Katerina) can be right. |

| Reference: damn idiot Reference information: idiot stands for с горы насколько я понимаю "с горы" означает " лохматый", " не цивилизованный" there should be a certain amount of poetic licence involved in this Example sentence(s):

| Reference: Хрен с горы Reference information: Хрен с горы — (или с бугра) пренебрежительно о ком либо (чаще о незнакомом или о том, кто пришел невовремя, ведет себя вызывающе и т. п.) http://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/dic_synonims/389705/хрен На моей памяти, выражение обычно встречается именно в вопросительной форме: А ты что за хрен с горы? (типа "Ты вообще кто такой; откуда здесь нарисовался?") - Who /in the hell/the fuck/ are you supposed to be? (как возможный перевод) |
