To be at "odd's end"

Question

I wonder how you would translate odd's end. It means, that you disagree so strongly, that it is as if a void exists, in which you look into the mirror and see the reflection of a reflection of a reflection, and at the end of all those reflections you still disagree (that is how I interpret odd's end). Is there anything like that in Spanish? Gracias.

Answer 1

Well you could say it in a variety of ways. "Hay un abismo entre A y B" or "Hay un abismo entre nuestras posturas", "Nos separa un abismo", "Tenemos posturas antagónicas", "No hay ninguna posibilidad de entendimiento entre nosotros". Of course when I say "nos/nosotros/nuestras/tenemos" I don't mean to imply that it only works for "we".

edit: by the way, I have seen "to be at odds" extensively, are you sure it is "at odd's end" and not "at odds end"?

I like 'nos separa un abismo' - superb! - galsally, Oct 24, 2010

Answer 2

Maybe, "A muerte" "Lo que sea" "Hasta el final" "Nunca jamás"

Colloquial - "ni de coña". Another example with "coña" "¿estás de coña? Are you kidding me?"
