On the website and in our books you can browse dozens of idioms. Each idiom also has its literal translation in the other language and is illustrated by the talented graphic artist Galih Windu.

idiomplanet is the brainchild of some friends living in Brussels. We often sat together and enjoyed the fact that languages sometimes have completely different ways to say the same thing. And Torsten Peters asked himself:  Why not note this down and make funny illustrations? Language experts and -lovers will enjoy the illustrations and may still discover some new and amusing idioms. For language learners our idioms can be the key to really discover, enjoy and live the new language. And children will love the illustrations and become curious to discover languages.
