Practice not being too literal # 55
As my title says, I am trying to learn to not be literal in translations, so every day I will post a saying in English and ask for suggestions as to how to convey the thought in Spanish. At the end of the day, I will pick the answer that I think most accurately reflects the idea, and I will choose it as best answer for 20 points to the respondent.
Yesterday's answers were so awesome that it was really difficult to pick a best answer. Thanks to everyone for your participation.
Today's phrase is, "It's all Greek to me."
Good luck and have fun!!

It may as well be written in a language I'm not familiar with because I don't understand it.
Pode moi ben ser escrito nunha lingua que eu non estou familiarizado con porque eu non entendo iso.
Or simply: I don't understand it.
No entiendo.
No entiendo nada.

In England we sometimes say "It is all double Dutch to me"

"Es todo griego para mi." ( Literal transalation hahah ) but I would just say Idk or I don't understand. No se o No entiendo.
