    In German, it’s an elephant instead of a bull is someone is curious

              Whatever works, I guess, actually in Dutch it is in a ‘china-cabinet’ (?) as in a closet/cupboard for fragile plates but i guess that word is so old it’s not really something anyone actually anyone has like nobody has silverware for special occasions anymore.

      It seems it is elephant in most languages. I was not even aware English idiom has a bull instead.
