1 catch old birds with chaff
"провести старого воробья на мякине", легко обмануть, провести опытных людей [от посл. old birds are not to be caught with chaff; см. old birds are not to be caught with chaff]A genuine Rembrandt! Don't talk rubbish, it's only a poor copy. Don't try to catch old birds like us with chaff. — Подлинный Рембрандт! Что за вздор вы говорите. Это всего-навсего довольно плохая копия. Таких опытных людей, как мы, не проведешь.
