No hay salida?

Question

hi

What's the translation of the sentence in the title?

So far i guess it's "there'ss no way to get out(or "get away") from it".

Am i correct?

Otra cosa mas, ayudeme con esto:

"En mi vida no hay más salida"

(the word "mas" make it tricky for me and I can't understand it).

Thanks guys

Answer 1

I would say, similar to yours, 'there's no way out'.

As far as the más goes I wonder if it's in there to mean 'any more'? As in - perhaps there used to be a way out but not any more. Just a guess though.

I agree Kiwi. Not that im an authority lol! - billygoat, Aug 16, 2011

Más used in this way can be: "There is no other way out." - gintar77, Aug 16, 2011

Answer 2

As always, it depends on the context. Just with what you have, I would translate it as "There's not way out." It might also be "No exit," as in what it says on signs marking dead end streets. Here in Chile, the signs say "calle sin salida," but I would imagine that the phrasing might vary a bit from place to place.

So far i guess it's "there'ss no way to get out(or "get away") from it".

Por ahora, supongo que no hay forma de salir de ahí.
