Wenn hohe Zahnarztrechnungen drohen, bleibt nur gute Miene zum b\u00f6sen Spiel zu machen. Auch im Englischen.

to have a sweet tooth<\/em> =\u00a0 eine Naschkatze sein<\/p>\n

z.B.: Johnny really has a sweet tooth<\/em> he already had five doghnuts today.<\/p>\n

to be toothsome<\/em> = lecker sein (im Bezug auf Frauen = ein steiler Zahn sein)<\/p>\n

z.B.: This steak looks really toothsome<\/em>. Our new female apprentice is really toothsome<\/em>.<\/p>\n

to be long in the tooth<\/em> = alt sein<\/p>\n

z.B.: Rafting? I’m a little long in the tooth<\/em> for this kind of sport.<\/p>\n

clean as a hound’s tooth<\/em> (auch clean as a whistle) = blitzsauber sein<\/p>\n

z.B.: What do you want, my shirt is clean as a hound’s tooth<\/em>, never mind my wearing it for a whole week.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
