    I know that this is weird "The snow under our legs was grey", but the translation is not incorrect.

      Can you point to some actual usage in English (corpus, article, book) or did you just make it up?

        I'm just basing in the fact that in czech (as far as I know) tehres no distinction between legs and hands.

        I suppose you meant between legs and feet.

        feet = nohy , chodidla

        legs = nohy

        hand = ruka

        hands = ruce

        arm = ruka , paže

        arms = ruce , paže
