Idioms/metaphors to include in an essay

Hello

Are there any good Spanish idioms/metaphors that could possibly be useful in an essay? For example 'it's not my cup of tea', 'fighting a losing battle', 'the best of both worlds' etc. It's not an exhaustive list, if there are some that are commonly used in Spain/Latin America, that would be fantastic.

Cheers

Here is a link to a discussion about "putting it on the back burner".

Also, you may find many idioms on our "Phrasebook" pages. You can get to the phrasebook by using the "More" link on the blue bar above. In the drop-down menu click on the word "Prasebook".
