: : Point well taken. Your English looks good to me! What I've found interesting is how old some phrases are. So many of our modern sayings, in several languages, have a common ancestor.
: I agree ... the dog-thingy seems to be common in all roman languages. My latin-teacher once told me, that this phrase's origin is roman - they used this a long time ago, and I believe that it just has been adapted by all languages that derivated from latin (german, english, spanish, italian etc.)
