peer agreement (net): +2Open his eyes wide Explanation: http://m.iltirreno.gelocal.it/prato/cronaca/2014/02/22/news/... It means "strabuzzare gli occhi" (to open them wide because you are surprised). It's not common Italian, I suppose (the vocabulary I took the meaning from has words from the Prato variety of Italian). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 50 mins (2018-06-07 22:00:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I suppose that "goggles" would work, too. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2018-06-08 06:16:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, exactly |
