Just an idea,
It occured to me how incredibly poetic some foreign expressions are. Like the french "le fermeture éclair" which means zipper, but litteraly means something along the lines of "closeing like lightning".
Anyway, i thought it would be pretty interesting to see other contributions from your homecountries, with a translation.
