Practice not being too literal # 36
As my title says, I am trying to learn to not be literal in translations, so every day I will post a saying in English and ask for suggestions as to how to convey the thought in Spanish. At the end of the day, I will pick the answer that I think most accurately reflects the idea, and I will choose it as best answer for 20 points to the respondent.
Wow, yesterday's answers were all awesome. It was hard to pick, but I chose the answer that reflected how the same thing is said in Spanish. Well done to you all.
Today's phrase is, "under the weather"
Have fun and good luck.
