What is an idiom for a person who likes himself too much? [closed]
I want to ask you about an idiom in Arabic, especially used in Iraq. It is about the groundnut plant which has a different colors before it blooms; however, we use this idiom for a person who likes himself too much, so is there an equivalent in English?
Solution 1:
Possibly a narcissist:
an extremely self-centered person who has an exaggerated sense of self-importance
Merriam-Webster
Interestingly, this also has a plant connection. The word comes from a character in Greek mythology:
a beautiful youth in Greek mythology who pines away for love of his own reflection and is then turned into the narcissus flower
Merriam-Webster
