green fingers
Interesting that in Germany we have a green thumb, whereas in the English-speaking world it's green fingers.
Here are some more green expressions for you:
- the Green Party = die Grünen
- green about the gills = blass um die Nase
- green with envy = gelb vor Neid
- the green light = die Genehmigung, die Erlaubnis
- green revolution = die Agrarrevolution
- green house = das Gewächshaus
- green tax = die Umweltsteuer
