Uranhjort

Some personal favorites I have used or heard used lately :

“Der er ingen ko på isen” - “there is no cow on the ice” meaning that nothing is wrong after all

“Lave dobbeltkonfekt” - “making double confection” meaning making more work for yourself for no reason

“Gøre ham en bjørnetjeneste” - “doing him a bear’s favor” - a well intended deed that makes things worse in the long run
