French idioms to say “It was easy!”

I realized we have in France many ways to say “It’s easy!”? Piece of cake? Yes. Kind of.

Here are a few :

• C’est un jeu d’enfant : child’s game
• C’est du gâteau : it’s some cake
• C’est du nougat : …
• Facile comme bonjour : easy like hello
• Comme sur des roulettes : like on little wheels
• Les doigts dans le nez : fingers in the nose
• Comme qui rigole : like who laughs
• Bête comme chou : stupid like cabbage (more like “dead easy”)
• En moins de deux : in less than two (fast and easy)

 

I found English ones on the web – it’s a lark, a cinch, a snap, a pushover or easy as pie (which one do you use?) – but also other countries’. And they are funny!

• In Spain : it’s like sew and sing
• In Netherland : it’s a little egg
• In Belgium : it’s sliced bread
• In Romania : it’s a flower on ear

 

Awweeee!
