Does each language have "lefty loosey righty tighty"?
Does each language have "lefty loosey righty tighty"?
The world has a lot of different standards for a lot of things, but I have never heard of a place with the default screw thread direction being opposite.
So does each language have a fun mnemonic?

You're viewing a single thread.
We have: "Nach fest kommt ab"
The phrase "Nach fest kommt ab" is a German saying that translates to "After tight comes off" in English. It's typically used to describe the idea that if you tighten something too much (like a screw), it will eventually break or come loose. It’s often used to remind people to not overdo things.
Yes, but that phrase does not tell you in which direction you have to turn to tighten it. So it doesn't really answer the question?
There’s the fun police again
... nach ab kommt Arbeit
... after off work follows
