You are worth your weight in gold
Remarks about the translation
I think that a "er" is missing in the source:
"You're worth gold"

Hi pias ;x

I agree with you that it probably should have read "'re".

In it's present form, it would need a question mark in order to create something "readable" in English.

In this case it would be quite a slangy, aggressive way of asking someone.

Oh..Tantine,
I think that the meaning here is not a question,
"you are gold worth"..Is that a better way of write it in English?

There is a stock phrase in English.

We say "You are worth your weight in gold"

Maybe it could fit here?

I have edit now Tantine, but still there is nothing about "weight" in the source, just: "You're worth gold". I think that people will vote against..
