peer agreement (net): +2sich wie der Elefant im Porzellanladen benehmen Explanation: ... bzw. sich im konkreten Fall eben nicht so benehmen. Das wäre ein entsprechendes Idiom im Deutschen, aber das ist natürlich nur eine von vielen Möglichkeiten. Im konkreten Fall scheint mir das vielleicht ein bisschen zu blumig, ich würde u. U. etwas sachlicher formulieren. |
