Question

How do you say, " Let's not go there" in Spanish, please?.

I have used this expression in English in a kind of 'tongue in cheek' manner (with humour) when indicating to adults or older children that it would be better to move on to discussing something else.

I would like to know what the current Spanish idiom/expression is which means the same thing so I could use it appropriately.

Answer 3

'Let's not go there' Such a great colloquial phrase and three excellent members of the forum - one of whom must have thought to enter it into the Phrasebook? (Is this the sad face?)

Margaret I have only just thought of it today lol I could not enter it into the phrase book before as I didd't know how to say it until today - FELIZ77, JUN 2, 2010

Queria decir, en espanol - FELIZ77, JUN 2, 2010

Ha! This is really good - I am guilting people into it... - margaretbl, JUN 2, 2010
