ανύπαρκτη αρχαιοελληνικότροπη έκφραση

Θα διαφωνήσω. Είναι ανύπαρκτη αρχαιοελληνική έκφραση και υπαρκτή αρχαιοελληνικότροπη.

... Απορία: υπάρχει στα αγγλικά κάποια φράση με τη σημασία της τερατολογίας που χρησιμοποιεί ζώα και θα μπορούσε να μπει εδώ; ....

Hogwash
Hog's wash

 

[pontios]

or ...
horseshit (if you want to keep the horse theme).

 

[cougr]

That's the obvious one but I think nickel requested that the less savory ones be left out. Otherwise we could probably add a few more.

Και άμα είναι καλύτερο από το «and all that bull», ακόμα καλύτερα.

 

[pontios]

[pontios]

That's the obvious one but I think nickel requested that the less savory ones be left out. Otherwise we could probably add a few more.

What about the other obvious one that we missed (which just came to me)? .... (this way, we're keeping with the horse theme, at least).

Horse feathers

What does the expression Horse Feathers mean?

horsefeathers pl (plural only) (euphemistic) Nonsense; indicates disbelief. Dismissing the rumors as "horsefeathers", he advised everybody to disregard them. Long hair on lower legs of a draft horse (e.g., Clydesdale), especially the rear legs. Feathering strips.

(I want to see 2 likes at least ... and there'd better be ).
