It's all Greek to Me!

　　When I'm studying Chinese I usually feel really confused and think to myself， "It's all Greek to me!" You might be thinking how could it be Greek， when it's Chinese?" This is an idiom we use to express that the situation or the material is too difficult to understand. Much like if I spoke to you in Greek; you wouldn't have any idea what I was saying or what it means! When I watch football， because I don't understand any of the rules， I can say， “It's all Greek to me! ”

　　一窍不通 (如同天书！)

　　当我正在学习中文的时候，我真的常常感到疑惑并且自己思索着，“中文对我而言就是希腊语！”你可能会想：明明在学中文，怎么又扯上希腊语呢？原来这是一个习语，我们用它来描述难懂的事和物。就好比如果我跟你说希腊语；你可能如同听天书般完全摸不着头脑！比如，当我在看足球赛的时候，因为我不懂得任何规则，我可以说，“It's all greek to me”我对足球规则一窍不通！
