"desde luego"

Question

Como se traduce "desde luego"?

por ejemplo: "Desde luego, no me gusta ir a la playa."

Gracias.

Answer 1

Of course, I don't like going to the beach.

Answer 2

JulianChivis hit the nail on the head, Desde luego is an idiomatic expression meaning "Of course". From a dictionary's standpoint "Therefore" is "por lo tanto". Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Therefore

For example: "Therefore, I don't like going to the beach."

That's not correct - "desde luego" means "of course", definitely not "therefore" - crabcake, May 22, 2010

Answer 4

luego

Desde luego -> of course

It seems odd that they would call it a noun, however.
