testa di rapa *

* turnip head

A mild way of telling someone they are not very bright, intelligent, or otherwise capable of understanding or doing. Similar to calling someone an idiot, just less offensive.

"Andrea è proprio una testa di rapa, si è di nuovo dimenticato i compiti!"

"Andrea really is a turnip head, he forgot his homework again!"
