1) “vom Leder ziehen”: to loudly complain about something or rip somebody a new one — literally “to pull out of the leather” in reference to pulling a gun from its holster
2) “shade” and “shadow” are not distinguished in the German language, making me sound very weird when I mix them up (honestly I just use “shadow” 100% of the time)
