Cómo se dice "as if that weren´t enough"

Question

I want to use a Spanish equivalent of the English "as if that weren´t enough." Any suggestions?

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

I do a lot of reading in Spanish - several books a week (ah, the joys of retirement!) - and I see all the time "como si eso/esto fuera poco" or "por si eso/esto fuera poco". Just by context I have understood it to mean "as if this were not enough", but your post prompted me to do a google search, and this is the translation several sites give.

Clearly there is a great variety of Spanish vocabulary and turns of phrase, but I believe that you cannot go wrong with this translation, since I have read it in works by a variety of authors from different Hispanic regions.

Answer 2

I'm having to write a Spanish essay about the meaning of my name. I have just written a paragraph about my name's Irish meaning (which has many complications) and now want to say, basically, "and as if that weren't enough, my name also has an alternate Welsh history."
