In Brazil we used to say "when the snake smoke".There's a interesting history about that.During the WW2 was happen someone asked to Brazil's president when Brazil would go to the war and he s says:"wheb the snake smoke", and that's because of it that the emblem of Brazil arms was a snake smoking.Sorry for my bad english, i'm learning.

Not all that impossible. I saw a Pokemon- besides flying, he threw fire through his mouth. Poor Pikachu, he suffered lots before overcoming him. 😂 Thanks for the video, superb, and remember : the pigs love, too.

Thank you very much, I didn't know this idiom. Actually we have an alternative idiom (though we call it a proverb) in our native language. We say: " when the camel's tail touches the ground" (because camel usually has tiny tail and it never reaches the ground. 😂😂

In Italy, we say:
"When donkeys fly" .
Or "On the Greek calends": the "calends" are the first day in every month of the ancient Roman calendar... The "Greek calends", absolutely, don't exist!!!
(I hope my English is correct!)
Love from the Eternal City!

In Russian we say : when the cancer on the mountain whistles. Идиома похожа по смыслу на : Когда рак на горе свиснет

We have a similar idiom called you can trust a man when sows can climb trees.

[MPhonemicEnglish]

Usually when saying 'promised to', we actually say 'promista'. What's interesting is that you actually bang out both released 'T's and say 'promists-ts'. Do you always do that?
