Yes, translaters must have had nightmares over that. They would translate it different every time (jn the subtitles) when they aired the show over here. It's particulary hard, beacuse it's used in so much different ways. Sometimes they just say 'Sit on it' to put down someone else, but sometimes it literally mean 'to sit on it', like when Ralph tells Fonzie to sit on his new bike (that Ralph bough after he drove over Fonzie's old bike).
