4. If a Dutchman says "He got a blow from the windmill", what they really mean is... This one is wrong. It means he is crazy, or what he suggests is crazy. There is however another one: "He is fighting windmills." This means he is fighting imaginary enemies or problems. (It stems from Don Quixote, which is of course Spanish, but I don't know whether they use this saying in Spain too.)

The tamil one was poorly translated. If some one dies the procedure involves taking bath by immersing yourself in a river. Since rivers won't be available readily, the easier option is to take a bath where water is poured on your head. If someone performs this act they're considering someone as dead.
