I'm from Ukraine but Russian is my native language.

No, it isn't so. Doesn't even look like a very bad translation. Just no.

Nothing. There isn't any idiom for that.

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago

You don’t a single idiom for “mind your own business”? Wild, but ok.

[–] nawa@lemmy.world 13 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

Well there is the "not your doggy business" (as in, you're the dog/bitch, and this is not your fucking business), but it's rarely used now and it's also not super special

French one is actually mostly correct, but the expression is not used that much

[–] claimsou@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I use it very often. It might be a region thing. I am from the north.

I'm from Lorraine; we use it quite often.

As an Arabic speaker I have never heard of number 3, though Arabic is more like forty languages in a trench coat so that's not saying much.

[–] Epzillon@lemmy.world 66 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was surprised "Arabic" was this loosely defined when "Chilean Spanish" was very specifically defined immediately following

[–] auraithx@piefed.social 22 points 23 hours ago

This meme was brought to you by the Chilean gang

[–] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It has so much in common with English

[–] protist@mander.xyz 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Or any language spoken over a wide geographical area

Explanation for the french one : onion is an old slang for anus. So "mind your own onions" is an old-fashioned way to say "mind your own ass"

First time seeing this. Much more common one is "тебя ебать не должно" or a version without swearing: "не суй свой нос в чужие дела*

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago (2 children)

"First time seeing this. Much more common one is "you shouldn't give a fuck" or a version without swearing: "don't stick your nose into other people's business*"

Is that an accurate translation? If so... Very similar to sayings in the U.S.

[–] malware@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 day ago

Yea, translation is spot on

That's not a common British expression, at least, perhaps someone says it.

[–] TomMasz@piefed.social 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It was fairly common in the US decades ago, but you don't hear it as much now. You're more likely to hear it with "business" instead of "beeswax" when you do.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Business is the original idiom and it didn't originally mean "stay out of mine." It originally meant to should make your own prosperity your primary focus. A similar modern phase that would capture what it originally meant might be "Keep hustlin."

In Denmark, the youngsters have recently been saying "spurgt?" which translates to "asked?" - as in "were you asked?". Somehow the brevity and linguistic lazyness makes it even more infuriating.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 13 points 18 hours ago (10 children)

Sounds almost as irritating as "OK boomer". Which I have to say is especially irritating to be on the receiving end of since I'm not a boomer.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 10 points 17 hours ago

Ok boomer, calm down

Apparently the Argentine equivalent is something like “take your hat off, you’re not in this photo”

[–] jaschen306@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

In Taiwan it's “關你屁事“

Which is mildly translated to "Care about your fart situation"

This is pretty derogatory. I wouldn't use it unless it's with your friends messing around.

A relative new saying in German.

Person A: Where is the bus?

Person B: which bus?

A: Of people who asked?!

As native Russian speaker, this is terribly rarely used in this full format (and it's one among many), but genuine, I've heard it IRL.

"Тебя не ебёт, так не подмахивай"

This is highly and universally derogatory, you could expect to hear it from lowlife/criminal, which, unfortunately, is what most russians are lately, though. For russian nazi population, this implies that you are gay or a slut, depending on biological sex, and that's close to your life worth nothing. For the rest, this is just something nazies would say to insult you.

The first part alone, though, is quite socially acceptable and overused. I guess, because it's lost the whole lore behind it, and showing your knowledge of whence it came from kind of reveals that it's not just an empty word, but you mean it.

I'm a bit hyperfocused on swearing, am I? Was one of my childhood's special interests.

Honestly, "mind your beeswax" is also a rare gem, but not quite so rare.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

English also has, "stay in your lane."

I will wiggle by ass on the camel & make signals with my candle whilst lubricating my onions with beeswax for you to fuck as I please, ok?!?!!

Mexico very similar to chile : "no tienes vela en el entierro".. English: you do t have a candle in this burial".

[–] Pumafred9@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Similar to another English idiom: You don't have a dog in this fight.

Another reason to love Russian (the language).

[–] drspawndisaster@sh.itjust.works 29 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I feel like I'd really love Russia if it weren't for everything they've been doing for the past ever

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 11 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

Understandable, I like their art and culture. Aside, from hating gay people and invading Ukraine.
